"KNOCK,KNOCK!" "Who's there?" "It's your date!" OH, great. Let me get the meat out of my teeth- And please let me brush my hair. My dress! Is that a tear? OHmy God! MY underwear!! I'm running around like I'm in a marathon... Do I have time to put more lipstick on?? And my date? Does he have zits? Or warts? Or nose hair? Worse- does he shave his pits? Maybe he's gorgeous like those singers- hm..Maybe if I could let that thought linger.... But I don't have time! He's pounding away-or is that my heart? Anyway-it's time for the date to start!! Cross my fingers, lick my lips, open the door... AHHHHHHHH!!! I can't tell you any more!!! (Guess what he is like.. Here's a hint- It's NOT Brad Pitt!!!!) |

Joy - I always wondered what the heck was going on when I came to pick up my dates - I love the light hearted spirit you showed in this poem. It makes me wanna repost something I write some time ago. great job of writing, Joy. |

I was wondering what all that ruckus was in the dark. This makes twice I have read the poem...but the first one was in the dark and all I could hear was the ruckus but no words to go with it. Thanks for turning the light on.LOL....not that the other one's irony wasn't great. |

Joy, Somehow I don't doubt that all of what you described does actually happen. A very creative poem and quite unique. Great work. minstrel |
