I've cherished that New Zealander with all my heart and soul.
To win her heart has always been to me a worthy goal
And now at last through stroke of fate it's easy to pursue her
Since Kamla has decided to become an ICQer!

I've filled her mailbox with up to twenty notes at once
Then settled back impatiently with hopes of some response
But, through some small malfunction, I could never get through to her
But all those days are over now 'cause she's an ICQer!

Now, every time she comes on-line, I see it at a glance
And seize the moment to show her I'm ready for romance.
Oh, what a great device for me to spot my girl and woo her
Since Kamla has been kind enough to be an ICQer!

No more waiting for responses from across the sea.
We can carry conversations instantaneously!
I've got New Zealand on my lap. My hands are getting bolder
And she can't even know that I am 35 years older.

My life is now complete. A rainbow spans my sunny sky.
Thanks to this great technology, a lucky man am I.
So here's to you, Severny one. No words are spoken truer
My world is now a better place since you're an ICQer!!!

This will sure get Kamla's attention. Can't wait for her feisty little retort.

The Severny One steps idly in...'You called?' she says nonchantly, hair blowing in a swift NZ breeze...'Sorry, I've just been running through some hills...skirts are a bit wet you know....cough cough...might get consumption...but obviously my 'deer has come to rescue me...I'll be fine, what with a nice strong man to look after me...'

The Severny One pauses...

'What's that - you're 35 YEARS OLDER THAN ME?! All this time! I swear I never knew...Oh I'm going to faint! I must compose some FREEverse'

Ahem...

I have travelled
  far and wide
    through American lands
  and Australian
and English too

yet I have
  never left
    my native soil
  and from them all
I found my 'deer

a source of wit
  and insanity
    beyond compare
  at last I thought
this restless heart

has found her man

But OH!
The horror
and the shock!

35 years
I whisper
broken

I shake my head:
everything said
it all is true

My 'deer
is but a marauder
and a wooer
of hapless women

and I among them

Ah sorrow!
(a dramatic phase)

My 'deer, my 'deer
I must leave you far behind
invisible you on ICQ
Ah yes

I seek YOU
Oh man of younger blood!

(P.S - just quietly 'deer: Have I convinced 'em? Let's go run off to some hills shall we?)

LOLLOL...thankyou 'deer one...you made me smile on an otherwise unsmiley day - so big hugs. You are a treasure...and I shall continue to plague you with the wisdom of the Severny One as soon as my exams are over.  

  Love K

That's my sweet Kamla
More charming than ever
So poised and positioned
To weather whatever

A snake charming beauty
With a tongue that's too keen
For a cobra's sharp fangs
That were left on the scene

Stay sweet, my love
Liz

Hey, Kamla!!! I have younger blood. I just had a transfusion last week! Ah, well. I see that I have let the cat out of the bag. I shall cancel my supply of Geritol and Energy Bars. Any, if we don't meet on ICQ you can always see me in ICU!!

Loved your poem, NooZee!!  

doreen...Why sure! I've been called a Defender Of Manhood many times!!!

Why Lizzzzzzy - you're not...you're not calling our 'deer a SNAKE are you?

I am sure he has been called that many times have you not oh 'deer?

(chortle chortle)


Look 'deer, provided you still manage to turn up with that private jet at some point I may just make a concession...hmmm, yes, it would have to be a FAST one - don't want no skanky, creaky, leaky thing. TOP class ok? AND if you provide me with a round the world trip to see the seveRn wonders of the world...that has definite potential for me to relent on the whole 35 year thing...(actually - I think it is more like 30 you know).

Whaddya say boyo?

Oh, 'Deer - you're a master of half truths!

I've got New Zealand on my lap. My hands are getting bolder,
And she can't even know that I am 35 years older.


To which I must add (for poor lil broken-hearted Kammie's sake)

Tis true OLD 'Deer needs a shot,
Or two from Youth's sweet fountains.
Cuz he's 35 years older
Than the Appalacian Mountains!


'Deer - great poem, and that lil Kammie's retort is a real hoot, too!  All of the crazies in here definitely keep me feeling great.

Kamla, I'm sorry but I would prefer a girl who wants me for my charm, grace, good looks, intelligence and deep humility instead of my Lear jet, diamond collection, great wealth and fantastic imagination.

OK, you old barnacle squeezer, I read your microscopic attempt at wit. For your information, the Appalations and I were born the same year! Now, if you had said Rockies, you might have been closer to the truth....you can insult me all you want. I'm just so happy to see you back I'll take it with a smile. Once this euphoria wears off, however, I'm coming after your skinny little derriere
