Picturesque
I imagine you,
timidly
sitting there
with a flower
in your hair
patiently
awaiting
my arrival
dressed
to impress
not
a
crinkle
in your velvet dress,
with a fire
in your eyes
that could
only be described
by the most talented of linguists
if even...
I'd arrive
at your doorstep
ten minutes in advance
with a
dozen
red
roses
held tightly
in my hand
nervously
waiting outside
until the last minute,
rehearsing my lines
a thousand times
before
knocking at your door
wondering what the night has in store

What a lovely and very romantic daydream! It made for a truly beautiful spill. Nothing beats a great love poem and this is definitely one. Amazing poem. I applaud you!

Always be the romantic, open doors for her, and put out her chair before she sits down. Be her knight and shining armor. Keep on writing.
There is such vulnerability here; the anxiety and excitement of new love, in equal parts. Excellent spill, NewB 💜. (I hope she appreciates the flowers 💐.)

Dear NB,
You were at the wrong house! My house was next door 😉.
What I loved was the sweetness behind
“ rehearsing my lines
a thousand times
before
knocking at your door”. I so appreciated the kindness behind this write. Even your daydreams exhibit care and concern for someone else’s happiness. For me your poem made me daydream that there is still goodness among people who aren’t just in it for themselves but truly care. Lovely piece. H🌷

Hell of a write Brother. Damn good stuff my dude, awww the heck with the He-man talk, lol......this is a beautiful poem NB. Your daydreaming of a picturesque love interest spills from your heart into verse with tremendous emotion. I can feel the angst and excitement. You literally transport your reader into the raw emotions so brilliantly portrayed. Bravo Brother!!!
