Notes About The Poem

the one

The grand ambition of love is to find “the one.”
and, of course, to be the one. 

It’s a hard combo.
 
Finding someone amiable, who’s the best lover, your best friend, 
confidant, emotional companion, intellectual equal and soulmate.

And, of course, it helps if ‘the one’ likes to dance 
and has a little piña colada money too.

And when do you know you've been successful - in year 50?

It’s the holy grail, the age-old dilemma of love and desire.
