How is it such
that your beauty and elegance
your wit and passion
for all that you are
for all that you pursue with such fervor
had gone unnoticed by me
for so long?
Yes, it seems an eternity
like as if you were there the whole time
and I had been plugging away in my own affairs
regarding you as splendid indeed
and yet just another party
in my circle of friends
Alas it has only been two months
since I had the pleasure of
gaining your acquaintance
While I may have been blinded temporarily
Mine eyes have seen the radiance
of the jewel glistening in the distance
the rose that I see from afar
beckoning me to come near
and entreat you in the very least
to pleasant companionship
My heart may pound lightly
my imagination may swirl
but I realize where reality stands
here and now
nowhere else
because all I can hope my lady
is an endearing smile may you impart
from our rendez-vous in three days time
Bon Nuit
