My last entry "To take the risk"  made me think of a challenge,

In poetic form, how would you reveal a crush to someone or sweep them off their feet?

Btw ,    the person i wrote the poem for is now my gf.

frankly for me, i wouldn't want to get a girlfriend until around my freshman year of college or my senior year of high school, too much romantic pressure . but to reveal a crush, i wouldn't want to reveal the crush automatically. write a poem that needs a little figuring out to do. something like a secret santa poem or a riddle but into rhymes that explains yourself. for example,

i am the eye of an eagle,
i bear the balance of a crane
i sprint faster than an african swallow,
i wear a lion's mane.

now the key word here is a lion's mane. what color is a lion's mane? maybe brownish orangish, it can describe someone's hair or if you run a mile in a very short amount of time, it can be the african swallow. and then write how you have a crush on her/him and vise versa
