That Boyish Grin

That Boyish Grin. I received a message from this guy Quite handsome and debonair, He said he liked my picture He found it quite exceptionally fair. Surprise of course consumed me My “Fair Days” quite gone by And my age a little bit older As I told him feeling quite shy He said, “Age is just a number, Not to be confused with the heart It finds its own way to the soul Where it nestles to never depart Well, we started a conversation Talking carefully to each other And we had a lot in common I found him more than a potential lover From all I gathered from things he said I found him sensitive and kind.
