Love Poem: A First Date

A First Date

A First Date

Stumbling to find the words
To ask her out that first time
Stomach like curds
Finding that right line

When yes was her reply 
Joy and excitement on my face
My emotions sky high
The heart beginning to race

Oft to a dinner royale we do go
Conversation and wine ensues
Eyes meet and smiles exchange, she's it I know
Drawing to an end was getting the blues

The bill arrives and it was quite a lot
Then the realization my wallet I forgot
