And, anon, the two were wed.

I'm half friend,
I'm half suitor,
My mind controls the friendship,
My heart rules the rest.
Hope you understand.
Where you are concerned,
it's the best I can ever be....

Eggsactly but not quite

There once was a beautiful chick from Peru 
With more than one suitor, knew not what to do 
Yet on Valentines day 
She never got a lay
Her ovulation cycle was way off cue

Prissy pink praying mantis pretends no preference
Delightful dapper Dan, a suitor, gives her deference.
They dance a tantalizing tango with her cousin Ted.
Before the dance is finished, Dan has lost his sweet head....

A Poetess schemes
A Poetess dreams
In the thick afterglow
Of what’s never to know

Her feelings unsure
Her words premature
Her voice still unnamed
 —her suitor unclaimed

Far from where I’m supposed to be,
destined here to roam
Lost in waters still unmarked,
drifting and alone
On my way to nowhere fast,
distance calls my name
The wind a suitor, time undone
—future shores to claim

(The New Room: April, 2022)...

Lover #1

cherry tree blossoms
sweet scented perfume distilled
your lush fruit revealed
  
  Lover #2

rutting buck rattles  
virile stag catches sweet scent
drifts through fertile fronds
nubile does snuggle closer
suitor fondles coy lover...

I taste your bergamot nectar.
Orange rhythms entice any suitor. 
I drizzle you with honey in the midst of true friends
To calm all tensions in the mist of turmoil.
Hence  I shall love you.
You shall love me.
And that is how it shall be.
For all eternity....

The queen of hearts 
She made some tarts
Because she had no suitor

The knave of hearts
He stole the tarts
Because he was a looter

He took them all
And left the ball
Going at a run

The queen she cried
The knave had lied
What did I see in the bum?...

There once was a suitor in Rome
He sent his sweet Valentine home.
When she got there,
She had an affair.
He foamed from her roaming syndrome.

November Song 

No suitor knocks on her door
her hair is white and uncombed 
children think she is witch.

Once she had been the belle of
the royal ball, spurned lovers
in her perfumed air.

Old age came creeping, first 
slowly than rapidly… and know
she is quite forgotten....

Suddenly she is all grown up
Time to declare I am over the hill
as I hurtle down, filled with
gratitude; a spring in my step

I am a suitor again;a paternity suitor
filled with thanksgiving and joy
The providence of God delights me
on the birthday of my daughter,Tanya...

I was 24/7 on my new computer, so my husband found another suitor,
Now I stay up so darn late, I cannot even find a date, then suddenly the early
morning broke, and the sun let me know how I was a joke, to sit and tap on buttons all night,
She said I need to get a life because no man wants a computer wife! lol...

When the One that you want shares the wanting-you-too, 
The decision falls squarely, unfairly on you.

The Man That You Love, or Unexpectedly There? 
Who's promised more love than the former will spare.

Do you wait in the shadows, grasp at faith in the future?
Or find your frail heart a more Suitable Suitor?...

Thou doth teareth fine maiden 

Tis is true 

But remembereth in all posterity

The damsel scorned 

Shall shucketh like corn 

The tapestries of her suitor 

And Knighteth the new conqueror 

To her most royal ambitions, nay aspirations! 

Which shall more properly suiteth her reverance

And presently her constitution...

you'll do what you've always done 
stay too long 
pretending you're a suitor 
or a knight in shining armor 
and i'm a damsel in this dress 

what a mess we've made of things 
you've been content to play the part 
of an ill-suited lover 
in a prime-time t.v. sitcom 
and i've been swiftly blown about 
wearing my heart on my sleeve...

They say nothing last forever,
who the heck are they?
My kingdom for my lady,
any suitor I will slay

My love shall grow strong
through the trials and tribulations,
our kingdom of great love
will shine for new generations

Dear lady, take my hand...
"Love forever" rules our land.

Miss Piggy’s a world famous Muppet
(Some people think she’s just a puppet)
When she flutters her eyes
Many cute handsome guys
Are star struck and some kick the bucket!

When Piggy went on a blind date
Her suitor she had to berate
He made a mistake
And ordered pork steak
No porcine is found near her plate!

I am a suitor sneaking upon her
or perhaps a light breeze upon her shoulder

exasperation or is it disappointment parts her lips,
simple indifference, unfulfilled hope?

turban undisturbed, 
in careful turn from light

would be I the target of her stare,
the reason for embalmment leap 

to me, to sit 
on this Mauritshus bench.

He declared his intentions; and she was surprised.
She had never thought of him as a suitor.
She tried to let him down easy, but it was hard.
He had poured out his heart.
She decided to introduce him to her cousin.
A woman who had been looking for such a commitment.
He was a terrific guy, and she wanted to help him.
Unfortunately, he did not see it that way....
