Darling Cinderella; you want that perfect man;
A ripple chested heart throb who can open any can?
To mow the lawn and tune your car and fill your arms with roses;
Buy you diamonds, write you poems, and paint your little toeses?
The envy of your girlfriends, who chaffeurs you around;
From mall to mall and loads the trunk with all the things you’ve found?
Who will recall your birthday, but not, alas, your age;
Knows your favorite perfume; and your menstral stage.
A guy who’ll clean the bathtub, and kiss your mudpacked face;
Help you pick out wallpaper, and start the fireplace.
He must be good at backrubs, and finding misplaced keys;
Digging holes for gardens, and dancing until three.
He comes with tools and ladders, a paintbrush and knife;
Not cats, or dogs, or golf bags -- in fact, no former life.
As comfy with a baby, as a snub nose .38;
Who’ll order wine in perfect French, and wait when you are late!
To bed you when you're in the mood, without a hesitation;
Performing feats deserving of a standing ovulation.
Who makes a fluffy omelet; and perks a decent brew;
And opts to stay at home with you to nurse you through the flu.
He must read maps and blueprints; the Wall Street Journal too;
And if you choke on escargo, he must know what to do!
Who’ll never fart, or break your heart, or hollar at your mother;
Cheat or lie, or make you cry, or one day find another.
Well my dear, let’s stop right here, because you are mistaken
The good guys are still out there—they haven’t all been taken!
They’re not booked, they’re overlooked, by ladies with a list!
That pass the guy who's quiet and shy, and know not what they've missed!

wow... I was shy guy, wow, she was that shy girl, wow
we changed the stars around, wow
can't you see me, can't you hear me now
Gee,
How they moved.
I see so much more clearly now
More than I ever did
Great poem, she said...
Peace! |

OMG so true
Especially the last stanza
Reality has no place on the list.
Very unique poem.
True but funny with a great flow and tells a story as well.
You covered all the bases.......................
Superb

If I had a penny, for every time a lady has called me perfect...
I'd have but only a few-maybe a couple cents.
Yet strangely, it would seem that compliment,
Should be held happily, by way of common sense.
Yet my shyness has only been held endearing,
While my modesty was seen most blessed.
But only by that selected few,
Was my heart with, so finely deep impressed.
Great write Jaye. :) |

I love this! This is what I call no-effort reading! You have an awesome way with words. It just pulls the reader in and they just have to sit back, relax, and enjoy the scenery painted in the poetry!
But as they say easy reading is really hard writing. So kudos to you for this fantastic poem! :D |
