My Dear Damsel

My Dear Damsel 

My dear Damsel, 
Please, do not respond 
 With letters’’ hmn ‘’ 
To my proposal 
It may be on-line 
But you know I am a man
 Of promise and oath 
If you ask even for fun 
I will go a week 
Without taking a bath 
In these hot summer days 
But please, my dear damsel 
Do not reply with ‘’hmn’   
 To my perusal to come 
To the island of sand 
 Recently risen up 
In the chest of a river 
In this afternoon 
If you cannot come 
And comply 
I will go to the station 
And catch a new train 
It would not give 
Me a trouble 
Or create a problem 
I have less time to live 
So, Less choosy I am 
To adjust with; 
You know 
I am a man of bet 
And gamble 
And very fond of 
Glamorous girls  
Yet it does not mean 
 I won’t put off my shirt 
And rub my nose 
Against a wall 
 If you ask me 
Even for a fun 
I will do sit ups 
Hundred times 
Holding my ears 
If you wish 
But my dear damsel 
Do not say hmn 
When I propose you 
To see my profile 
And ask to give a like 
On my hero type photos 
But do not hymn ‘’hmn’’ 
It burns me from inside.
