Long-ago I met a very charmingly simple girl
She's so awfully pretty
Like an intriguing Greek deity
Shy like a bright yellow mimosa or velvety brown kitty
A little bit of (both) Veronica and Betty.
I nicknamed her Ducky Duck, Duckling and Sugar
She looks like a mesmeric porcelain doll
In blue dungarees or black overalls
Me in grey elbow patches blazer and blue suspenders
Soulmate: Let's explore the world in a funky house trailer.
She thinks I'm loony and moonstruck
She reads the likes of Fredrik Backman and John Boyne
I'm into Richard Bach and Frederick Forsyth's bestsellers
I'm an egghead and impractical idealist
She's a poetess and stargazer.
A heterodox and an orthodox
I believe in miracles
She is a realist sort
Anyways, she's really, really sly
Ditto Samantha Fox!
Honeypot: Can I read you:
A Suitable Boy or From Heaven Lake
Yep, yep (both) by Vikram Seth
Or you wanna go to our homing pigeon loft?
What're we going to do on our first date? :-)
Please tell me, My Soulmate? :-)
