Super  

How do you describe a relationship
That grows better every day?
What terms should you use?
As you smile, what do you say?

Can you tell them how you seem to melt
How her smile seems all you've seen
Maybe all you tell them is
Her eyes are awfully green.

Or should you wax poetic?
Use Ms Browning as your guide
Let everyone know the full extent
Your love's now deep and wide.

And knowing there's a playful side
With humor, laughs and such
Would you deny your friends to know?
It makes you love her very much.

Of course they'll want to know about
If passion's in the game
And so you cast your eyes up high
Tellings' not the same.

I think of us, and how we've warmed
I know we won't be shushed
And I know there's a word for us
Supercallifragilisticexpeallidocious!

Martie - Poet DeVine

Most times I write a poem - having the start in my mind but not the finish. - This was a rare case where the reverse was true. - Frankly - I am always amazed that my stuff comes out as well as it does.
