Single-Minded
We know that some aren't ready yet
To fall in love again.
Between loves, they seem firmly set,
Not knowing where or when.
But there are those that know their minds,
Their hearts are fancy free...
Each day they're looking out for signs
And dreaming hopefully.
They make the time to look their best,
As if they are on show,
As if to leave us all impressed
Before they have to go.
They carry cards with emails on,
As if this were the norm
And hope before the day has gone,
New contacts keep love warm...
Good luck to them! They may get wed!
I'm single and content.
I'm one of those who think ahead
And hate my money spent.
I hope to stay a bachelor
With money left to spare
Than make my life a constant blur
With children everywhere!
