I should have looked better,
deeper...and
with an enhanced vision...of you
getting my prize, that lays between my thighs
Letting you feel my energy,
and have my number...was the start of
my biggest blunder
Tasting your fruit,
and not recognizing the flavor...
was not a reason for me to think...to savor
Minute one, day two, and definitely not month
three was not enough knowledge, or truth
displayed for a Queen like me
I have looked at the best...of what I have that's tangible
like the fine crystal vase, my highest count threads...
but not before I opened my legs
I contemplated long and hard before spending
700.00 dollars for the shoes
known as Jimmy Choo's
I waited a year checking & trying for a better fit
...noting the quality, and waiting for a while
for that one pair with the right style
Asking many questions on-line,
trying to find, even one flaw...before covering
...my feet...
I spent more time & energy for shoes at places
...than I did for a man that would be right for my life
...not knowing he would bring me harm and strife
The next time I will recognize that exotic taste...of his fruit
when for sure... I am in search of a man
with my own plan
I will now see without those blinding rose colored glasses, and not be amused by swagger, curls, and
muscles.
I will hide my prize up on a shelf...and not display
God's given gifts,
and talent...
for a time.
~~ ~~
I will not let the ungodly feel my energy,
or come in my face, to invade my presence ...a real man of character
knows his place.
I'll check with the Master 1st, for that man that thinks he knows...
Okay enough said. I starting up a Lyrical Love fan club and I am the President. Wow you are amazing Lyrical. Now as a guy I can appreciate the way you acknowledge your mistake in picking the wrong guy and making sure the next guy understand that he better come correct because you will not be taken in again. This piece can be an anthem or use in a rap off if you facing this guy face to face. You thunder is with you and this poems says so. Great write but what else can one expect from you but that. Thanks for the creativity, honesty and my newly appointed position as your fan club President. Mercy!
i enjoyed this poem. it shows a wisdom in retrospect that i hope you carry into the future. it's easy to maintain a sense of reason when buying shoes. much more difficult when passions are aflame. good luck in the future.
I did catch on to this fast but I get it, The next time I will recognize that exotic taste...of his fruit

I am glad I chose to read this one first, it is very unique in how you compair the time you spent looking over shoes vs a man. Good comparison and perfect lesson to share with others. This piece is very strong full of self confidence and awareness nestled around a flow that is wonderful. Loved it.
Would I have ever known who Jummy Choo or Tamara Mellon, the founder of the company that bears his name was, had I not read this lovely poem? I doubt it. But she went to him with the idea of making beautiful shoes that were also solidly built and well made. Great advice to use as you choose a man or for a man as well who does more research on the car he will buy than the woman he chooses.

This sample is so telling. It is not just the woman`s responsibility to
choose a worthy man, it is man`s responsibility to be a man of worth.
This poem is a happy sythesis of good humor and critical philosophy.
In other words it is brilliant, incisive and cute.
