Pretty young thing slightly older than twenty five
the type to make a grown man shy
holding polish enough to make an older gentleman
check his shirt for wrinkles and double check
the crease in his pants...
before even daydreaming of a proper approach
younger woman seeming that damned professional
Should I risk even being shot down
or...
should I keep a safe distance
from a woman going for hers?
I hope you can understand where I'm coming from
I pray daily that a flower like you can exist without harm
you might or might not realize how much of a glow
I would have, just to hold your hand in mine safely
and teach you what my years have taught me about love
Maybe we can share lessons over a walk
through the park in springtime
or maybe a conventional candlelight dinner
that's if I can speak and not get stuck staring
into those beautiful eyes
I don't know your name
but I've learned your eye color already
while I watch you softly walk away
before I can even find the right words
to approach with
Young queen...
I hope you are having a blessed day
