Notes About The Poem

Alpha Lines Contest

Potential Romance

SKEPTICAL THOUGHTS UNDERMINE VERBAL WARMTH
as offered aloud from masculine parted lips.
When brain doubts unexpectedly burst forth,
ensure same feminine brain shreds them to strips.

MOONLIT NIGHTS OBSERVE POTENTIALLY QUED 
magic often downward fracture and fall apart
when a man’s truth isn’t evidentially clued
to a willing and attentive sweetheart.

AMPLE BAFFLED COUPLES DECLINE EMBRACE
if one is not genuinely enthused.
When qualms clearly show on one’s face,
the other’s face soon appears confused.

ENTICING, FOXY GALS HARKEN INTEREST
and good-looking men embolden heartbeats
so that when neither is indifferent
romance may take a stroll down High Street.

I first read this last night. Tim and Kyle were both sitting near, both wanted to know what I was laughing about so I read your first two sentences to them. Of course, I reviewed all I'd recently posted for evidence & really didn't find anything. You've just been reading so many of mine. No, I haven't written for Silent Kiss. LOVE CayCay
