Day One, Friendly

Invitation, answer,
Un-invited, un-sure

Hearth-throb, Heart-breaker
Better-by-the-dozen baker.

Sun-burnt, heart-led
Butter-fingered, brain-dead

Hours, hours,
live a life of passion

Weak-kneed, cross-eyed,
Lilly-livered, tongue-tied

Spoiled, dime-less,
clothed in better fashion.

Six cards, one game
Different method, same name...

***

Day one, friendly,
Day two, open.
Year 3, waiting, wanting, hoping.

Seconds, seconds --
Time, I'm watching.
Don't think you can trick me.
