If Only I Had Focused. A Poem

If only I had focused
On the positive
On the glorious
And heady conversation
I had with a new acquaintance.
How that could give me hope
That not all was lost
In my quest to be
Of some interest
To a man.

But it takes a special
Kind of man
To see through the layers
Of insecurity
To pull the best
Out of me
Like a magician
And his scarf pulling trick.

He is a<b> teacher
</font></b>And a damn good one
To see my educational flaws
And meet me where
They left off.

Truth be told
With him
My mind worked
When with so many others
It seemed to choke.

I have had the thought
Of lazy days
Spent discussing any
And everything
Like the sapiosexuals
We are.
Interspersed
With making love.
What a fantasy!

This conversation
With the<b> teacher
</font></b>Will be placed
Near to my heart
For it was nearly ideal
As it contained
Alll kinds of
Cultural references
With wordplay
And poetry.

But most importantly
It was the feeling
Of timelessness
Of not being hurried
Almost lazy
Was the feeling
So at ease
Was the flow
Of conversation.

I told him
It makes me feel
Warm and fuzzy
Chatting with him.
To which he replied
He was honored
To make me
Feel this way.

I added what
Came to mind
"An enigmatic smile
Upon my lips
And a twinkle
In my eye
As I think about
Our chat today.
Mona Lisa would be
Thought my relative.
I, the fairer one
For my hair
And complexion."

His fabulous reply
Taught me something
That may stick
In my mind
He said he found
Mona Lisa slightly mundane
Compared to me.
He would rather picture
Me as Pauline Buonaparte
In the Canova Sculpture.
To which reference
I hastened to Google
And Wikipedia.

Yes this conversation
Should have eclipsed
The negative thoughts
To which my mind turned
Regarding another man
And his cavalier
And judgmental treatment.
But I am smiling once again
As the conversation
With the<b> teacher
</font></b>Has come front
And center
And to it
My mind refocused.
Independently Romantic Sounds Better Than Lonely

 Everything is a mind game my lady ...
"...And there ain't no thing ..."
