I Do, But, Only To You

If he entices my impulses like wine.
Making me feel gooey, but still fine.
If the 'kid' in him calls out to mine
we'd be halfway there on the incline.

When I'm down, if he finds a way
to lift me, rekindle the sunny day
wrap his jokes in the overlay
having the audacity to speak his say.

He'll own the rich/raw depth of my essence
like a lost song coming into evervescence
blocking my grey like the pure luminescence
and to boot parting with my acquiescence.

    Though we may have a long list of wants, really for most of us it is simple: Someone who is kind, supportive and understanding. We can train them if they have those qualities to begin with, lol. A lovely poem.

    I truly admire your flair with exquisite rhyme and meter, Patricia. That man is out there, and he will find you, of this I am sure. Don

    I am glad you took the time to list all the things you are looking for in a partner.
    To me the perfect partner would be one that is caring and understanding.

    ! I LOOOVE THIS! I LOVE YOU!!! LOL...

    I love the passion involved, and all of the emotions; Desire, Longing, Love, Lust...all wrapped into a beautifully crafted work of art! BRAVO!!

    And I must add that I am very much in favor of the last stanza, which is awe-inspiring the way you used such a complex vocabulary and still made the rhyme without forcing it! BRAVO!!!!!!! Beautifully articulated!
    Best wishes in your contest!

    And in the famous words of yours truly: "Pick up the pen and never put it down again!"
