It was another lonely evening
In another lonely bar
When across the crowded gathering
I see, there you are
Intoxicating beauty and grace
and poise
Seemingly unaffected by the
crowd and the noise
I watched you deflect suitors
by the dozen
Hovering about and stalking you
like a coven
I sat and we talked and I no
longer had a choice
Uncommon beauty and a
lively intelligence
A rare combination beneath
such a lovely countenance
And, oh Lord, such an exquisite voice
Low and breathy, full of promise
The voice of seduction
Eroticism, witticism, full of compassion
A voice that prompts thoughts of
Nights of wild abandon
Of full moons.... Above warm tropical rains
Of long moonlit walks on the sands
Of fine wines and candlelit dinners
Of mountain log cabins with crackling fires
Of romantic destinations, nights
filled by sighs
A man whose conversation is an event
Intelligent, inventive, romantic,
and heaven-sent
Knowledgeable about so many subjects
With a voice that entrances sweet and direct
A man's maturity and a littleboy's innocence
Simple naivete and seductive tempter
A complex man without a doubt
A siren perhaps, singing to tout
Chivalry, sensitivity, and romance
Qualities begging for enhancement
In women the world over
Therefore the key to this man of myth
Is to make sure that he is never bereft
Of the qualities he so richly deserves
Do this to ensure that his love
will be preserved.
