Luck of the Wallflower

My luck, much like a wallflower
    that never sought attention

  Fortune blinked! Her coyest smile
    invited apprehension

As a wallflower, I tried to attract attention inn HS,,alas no luck. I did find attention but never at dances. Apprehension exists more as an adult. Who can I trst? The fewer, the better. Especially any online friend . Pangie

How about 'frenemies?!' Probably a 'safe name' for too many of our contacts online...

Yeah, when things start going my way I tend to get a little nervous. John

A wink of an eye or a coy smile Leads many couples to walk together down the aisle.

I can make them even briefer, Valsa... so brief there's nothing to read at all. ~ Mr. Magician
