Date Of Affection


For some it's a pint, for others it's a meal,

We get together and tell how we feel.

For some it's a first and for some it's the last,

For some it's the present and for some it's the past.

Roses and candles and a dinner for two,

Or maybe a picnic under a sky of blue.

There are so many options available to us,

And yet sometimes we still make such a fuss.

The planning, the clothes, the makeup too,

And yet all we want is to be with our boo.

We don't need fancy, Chinese takeout will do,

Or even some leftovers like homemade stew.

We stress ourselves out over something we need,

Just sit down and talk, listen and feed.

At the end of the day or even the week,

All we really want is a kiss on the cheek.
