I'M Dating Poetry!
The doorbell rings
He’s here!
I spray on a dab of cologne
Take a few deep breaths
To calm myself, then
Pop a mint in my mouth
I quickly glance in the mirror
Brush down a stray hair
My makeup is impeccable
My lips are kissable
My dress is complimentary
I LOOK GREAT!
Grabbing my purse and coat,
I head for the front door
I stop short when I hearing an argument in progress
I peek out the window
To my surprise all my lovers have shown up
How did I overbook on tonight?
There’s Romance
He’s dressed in a suit
Looking suave and debonair
Holding a dozen roses
He’s even brought his violin along
I’m ready for Romance!
However, I change my mind when I see Humor
He’s my main man
Dressed in bright colors, he’s telling jokes
Even though he’s the only one laughing
He looks like a clown, but
He always knows how to turn my frown upside down!
I was expecting Emotions tonight
He seems happy, but I catch a tear
Trickling out the corner of his right eye
Then he becomes angry when someone
Steps on his freshly polished shoe
But, he quickly cheers up and starts to sing
I should have know that Philosophy would be here
He’s leading the argument
Trying to explain to everyone
Why he’s here and giving reasons why
They all need to accept the fact that it’s his turn to date me
He even explains how wise they all would be to just leave
I can always count on Inspiration
He’s popped the cork on a bottle of champagne
Filling everyone’s glass as he encourages them all
Not to be upset when I chose him because
They would one day have a date with me
He even tries to get the others to write a dating declaration
Politics is not so easily convinced
He is used to working on both sides of the fence
He’s trying to get the others to do things the democratic way
He suggests that a dating committee be formed
He finally says that there should be a vote
Since that is the only fair way of doing things
Erotic is the first to bow out
He is looking so sexy in only a bow tie and boxers
He says that he doesn’t really want to go out on the date
He’s willing to step aside as long as they all agree that he
Can take over at the end of the evening
He says that he will be back after the nightcap has been consumed
Finally, I slowly open the door
I invite ALL of them inside
Why should I have to pick just one of them?
I’m in love with them all!
So I pull out my handy calendar and
I schedule dates with each one of them!
