Do you know
How I love you

How, in the middle
of this madness

I can still connect
to your eyes

and my heart fleets
in girlish swoon

Right here
I could
I would

If it weren't
for the fact
We'd lose our place
In this mile long
check out line

So I'll just stand here
Losing myself in our Love

With the one
who pushes the buggy
and all my buttons

This is priceless, Regina.  And so would be the look on the other customers faces were you not to exercise such self control!  Loved it, thanks.

You've been shopping, were in the middle of WalMart, with two shopping carts of toys and "things" and he was pushing the buggy...and your buttons, because he said nothing at all amid all of the hubbub!  Bless him!  and Thank You!

'Do you know

Fantastic write, Regina!  I truly love these lines, especially...the whole poem is great, but these lines stood out to me...wonderful read!

Why are you shopping?
Okay, I suppose you must.
Be careful driving home!

Enjoyed this view.

Oh...the romance that can occur in a check
out line...certainly many fantasies have
been born there during an otherwise boring
wait...Liked this Regina...very good.

Wonderful Regina. But how come he gets to push the buggy, that’s the only thing I like about grocery shopping…run down the aisle with the buggy and then stand on it as it coasts the rest of the way….what…you mean no one else does that???…I’m the only fool???Lol. Great write of love and desire, I love it.

If she who dies with the most toys wins, then can I have some toy boys please?
