Single

I don’t want worship, I just want love, praise can be spent on the one above, a soothing gesture, a calming touch, Really now, I don’t want too much, soft skin smooth on a silken sheet, wicked grin on home return greet, opinions given, not rancor debate, good support when too much on plate, walks on beach, time in hammock swing, loyalty that’s a granite-like thing, someone who dances, sings, and reads, who’ll watch a movie where no one bleeds, but right now it’s too hard to mingle, so for a while I’ll just stay single.

Beautiful, Jim! I think this is simply what most normal folks want - nothing dramatic with unnecessary embellishments - just plain love, friendship, and companionship. Well done!
