My Dream Date Over a Moonflower

My Dream Date Over A Moonflower She be a Toyota amongst Ferraris Nondescript, simple, garden variety A book with a plain cover Yet with pages that intrigue Pages that enlighten And raises my eyebrows And especially A book that I can't put down And want to read over and over Unlike others She'd take life slow Definitely in moderation Definitely with an eye on spiritual riches Instead of materialistic gains I see her heart skipping with joy On slow walks around the park Or taking a swim in the ocean With both our eyes and hearts in harmony And filled with laughter and warmth Her eyes would say "Let's Go Places" ... Some others would want a fairytale Rome, Paris, London Perhaps a candle light dinner under the moon With romantic music in the background But I would be happy finding that special one That's swells with taking in a Chinese restaurant In the slowest part of town ... sharing a moon flower soup 1/25/23 My Dream Date Poetry Contest Sponsor-Anoucheka Gangabissoon
