A Romantic Wish
Date Posted: July 19th, 2007
I am not a romantic soul. Nobody will ever consider writing on my tombstone: “HERE LIES THE LAST OF THE GREAT ROMANTICS!” Yet, a while back, I wrote something romantic for a young lady. By the time I was ready to present it to her she has vanished. Perhaps it was for the best.
I was told later on that it should have been accompanied by a long-stem rose (or is it more than one rose? Chocolate was apparently an alternative choice). Just handing a piece of paper was sure to get me blacklisted by the lady in question. No matter, I can at least share with you my first, and probably last, billet doux (romantic note).
I freed a genie from her bottle and in her gratitude she granted me one wish.
Genie, oh genie! I want a woman who was created when the Maker was in a generous mood.
A woman who has the splendor of the female, the daring of the male, and a wisdom beyond her years.
A woman who has not poisoned her mind and body with drugs, excess alcohol, or cigarettes.
Genie, oh genie! I need the sound of a velvety voice, the sight of a pretty face, or the tinkling of happy laughter; for without that, how can I stoke the fires of my imagination?
The genie asked me why I did not request money and power, for with that I can have any woman.
Genie, oh genie! The woman I am looking for cannot be bought at any price.

I feel like you could probably teach a class on how to make a great blog. This is fantastic! I have to say, what really got me was your design. You certainly know how to make your blog more than just a vehicle for an issue. You’ve made it possible for people to connect. Good for you, because not that many people know what they’re doing.

It is said that some books are to be read only in part; others are to be read, but not seriously; and a few are to be read wholly, and with diligence and attention. Your site merits and gets my complete attention.
