If I Fell In Love With a Poet
“If I fell in love with a poet”
Inspired by Silent One’s “When a Poet falls in Love”.

If I fell in love with a poet
How wonderful life would be
To wake each morning to a poem
Would be euphoric for me.
There'd be joy and glory in living
The wonders of all I'd see
Hearing endearing sounds of nature's
Charm of creativity.
Bird tweets would be enchantingly sweet
Music would bring me to tears
Every emotion stirred and shaken
Each time a poem appeared.
Poets cause ecstatic devotion
Inciting the heart and mind
Pleasing to recipients senses
Going to one's head like wine.
I love all words written of romance
Shooting my heart like a dart
If I fell in love with a poet
He'd be holder of my heart.
My sweetheart could present his poems
For the whole wide world to see
But I'd know the truth inside my heart
Every word was meant for me.
If I fell in love with a poet
I'd be happy all life long
Inspiration of every sonnet
Libretto to every song.
My ideal man is a poet
No other would ever do
I once fell madly for a poet
But he fell for slinky Sue.
