He had me at first glance
His name was William
But I called him Billy
So did everyone else
Billy had the curliest blonde hair I had ever seen
And the bluest eyes, too
His freckles only added to his allure
And his smile was to die for
Billy was a man of few words--shy, you might say
To a fault, you might say
Boring you might also say
But that didn't matter at the time
He was the cutest I had ever seen
And that counted for a lot back then
But cute doesn't cut it if that's all
And that was about all there was to Billy.
Our romance didn't last long--about one week, as I recall
Love is fickle
So was Billy
He was also five
So was I
Wherever you are, Billy
I don't care about you anymore
But I still remember you
Happy Valentine's Day!

Great poam! I would like to also send one almost like that to Penny. We were 12, and held hands all summer. Then she was gone.
ReplyDeleteHappy Valentine's day Penny.
