This one is just for fun.

My "Personals" Ad

I'm looking for a lover
Who is tender, smart and kind
I'm sure that he is out there
And not just in my mind
So if you see him walking
Looking lost and out of place
Send him to Alaska
So I can look him in the face
And ask a question or two
Or maybe three questions will do

Do you like to watch auroras?
Are your feet and heart both warm?
Are you gentle, kind, intelligent,
forgiving, compassionate, romantic,
poetic, honest, and can you cook?
Do you leave the seat up or put it down,
do you put the cap back on the toothpaste?

Ok, so that's at least four questions,
So maybe I'll need to know more
Before I give you my heart
Or my soul
Or let my Jack Russell Terrier
Kiss your face

Midnitesun,
Watched the auroras for three years but so long ago you were probably not born. Loved the write.

This is great. I've tried the personals, but didnt get very far with that. I seem to have better luck online.

Thanks to all of you for reading. I'm sorry I didn't reply until today. This was a fun one that popped into my head after scanning some Personals (for fun) in a local paper. Glad you liked it. One response to it wasn't posted here, but via private email. That response generated another poem called Colors for Jaime, that I will post today.

Midnitesun,
So I'm assuming that this ad has been filled! I'm late for everything.

LOL Larry. Not exactly. I may have a fantasy or two, but that's top secret for now.    
I was surprised to see this poem back up here!  HUGS to you.

Midnitesun; I just read your personal ad..What a clever idea.  So you are looking for a fellow to come to Alaska. Hope your ad helps in the search.  Wanda

Wanda, this really was posted as a joke, but the funny thing is, it generated a couple of interesting emails.
