Dis Oui

I spotted you from afar
Long blonde hair
Caught my attention

As I approached
I observed
All I could take in

Stricken by your beauty
I noticed
You reading poetry
I knew
That you must be
More than just a pretty face

The way your body flows
Curves
From head to toes
I know you must do yoga!
Intellectual and beautiful?
Damn! I must know your name
Just then the Barista
Calls out, “Soledad”
Spanish?
No, it means more
It tells me something about you
Deep thinker
Likes to meditate
I dig it!
Venti Dark roast in your cup
You like your men
Like you like your coffee
Tall, dark and delicious
You just don’t know it yet
I’m just your type

As you read
Your French poetry
I notice your eyes
And say,
T’as de beaux yeux, tu sais
Surprised by my observation
And straightforwardness in French
You’re now intrigued

Taken aback by your
Total package
I ask,
Vous êtes célibataire ?
Mais comment est-ce possible ?

I stop you before you speak
Because I don’t want you to lie
I say the reason you’re single
Is because you wanna be!
Because nobody has been worthy
Until now!

So say yes
