Blind Date # 24A Poem by unclecharlieShe was an athlete need I say more, We went places I'd never been before, First to the park of a little run, I couldn't keep up it wasn't fun, At the batting cage next we'd be found, I was embarrassed she beat me down, To a skate park next we we're off, She said I may need padding or something soft, She did some tricks a twist in the air, I could not do it but she didn't care, Five hours later exercise complete, Now a healthy lunch we're going to eat, It was salad, fish and fruit that was there, No pastries or sugar it just wasn't fair, The date was over at a quarter til three, She gave me a hug and snickered at me, I guess the pain I couldn't hide, My body hurt from deep down inside, She said I did pretty good at any rate, To call her if I could handle yet another date, The day was different but not something to snub, I soaked for hours in a hot tub, Then a smile spread across my face, Because I had fun in every single place, No question if I'll call again, There's no doubt I have a new friend!
