She Is Almost Too Lovely

She is lively, daring, dashing, dependable and lovable.
I watch her from afar for many years, feeling intimidated.
Feeling less loveable because she is a pied piper of the neighborhood.
Thank you for coming! She says running out to greet me.
If she hugs me, I will turn and run off.
I cannot stand this much love.

(chuckling again) You're on a roll this morning! Yes, I know how you feel. This gushy-gushy kind of sweetsie sweetsie isn't for me either! Let them lavish it on their grandkids or something.

Let them lavish it on their husbands who might love it.
