Love Letter

Unlike the pond life living here
you're the one I hold most dear
knowing you're mine makes me the glad one
I'd give you my heart if only I had one.
A nucleus is all I've got
trapped in a body like a pool of snot.
Though my looks won't cause surprise
as neither of us have been blessed with eyes.
I treasure your touch, and that's not sarcasm
there's nothing like the feel of ectoplasm.
I'm Solomon, you're my Queen of Sheba
for me you'll always be my darling amoeba.
Graceful and slender, a bit of a goer,
one mighty fine super-slime protozoa.

* Just an example of what I'm looking for in the contest I've submitted, folks, although I'm sure you'll do better. Viv *

I didn't realise you were the poem master for that one Viv....I must revisit. Here's a question my sister's youngest asked her ..."How do jelly fish make babies?" A good one to ponder for him perhaps??
