I Feel Such a Spiritual Connection – NOT! : Romantic Sonnet

We’re not yet connected spiritually.
We didn’t feel at first glance
that we’ve known each other eternally.
But that doesn’t mean there’s no chance.

We’ve felt no sudden connection,
No rush of pheromonal chemistry.
There’s no embodiment of soulmate perfection;
No neuronal or emotional telepathy.

Yet something in your voice, eyes and smile
Draws me to you and invites me to stay.
So we’ll just hang out together awhile;
and not push each other away.

We are comfortable together, like a pair of old shoes.
To those burned by chemistry before, that’s actually kinda good news.

of blonde tresses/

2 melt/
what she’s long felt:/
Practical parts./
But can mere touch and poetry/
provide chemistry/
2 start/
her heart?

Love learns./
Chemistry burns.

My Chemistry Romance Invitation: Email Poem Series

[She said]:
You might be rather witty
You could be lots of fun
But if we don’t share chemistry
I’ll still be on the run

I do not doubt
that your rhyme is true.
We should find out
for both me and you.

Then you must have time
to make up a rhyme
asking for coffee or tea
so you can finally meet me

You said you’d be back
after the Easter break
(if I haven’t
made a horrific mistake),
and that you’d contact me then
to let me know when
you were back in town
and up for hangin’ around.
So I’m waiting.
Antici . . . pating.
