Mister Perfect

I met someone today.

The classic Mister Perfect:

Tall dark and handsome,

With glittering eyes and a smile which lit up the room.

Dressed to kill with a well cut jacket, shirt and trouser combo

That looked like it came straight from the catwalk.

We got talking about who knows what;

There were laughs aplenty, and I’ll admit

I may have fluttered the eyelids a little more than was strictly necessary.

I’m sure you’d forgive me:

I couldn’t stop myself.

Another guy passed by

And a flash of recognition crossed his face.

They greeted each other with a hug;

It’s nice when a man can show some emotion.

When the hug turned to a more romantic embrace I could have died.

Looks like it’s true:

Mister Perfect ain’t looking for me,

He’s looking for Mister Right.

Not sure about the grammar/punctuation. Hmmmm...

I see it from a diffrent perspective from the other reviewers, although this was a little funny, I also found it humerous and sweet. I believe it has a depth to it that goes beyond humorThis has happened to me I guess is why I can relate, Here I am thinking I found Ms. Right only to have her leave me for Ms. Wrong (My ex-wife.) As for the grammatical and punctuations, I did'nt see anything wrong, and the poems rhythm was great... I really like this read, it is going in my favorites......

This was funny, I like it a lot. It has a "if Dr Suess wrote for playboy," sense to it and I think that's a great thing. I loved the simple structure too. Great write!
