Cooing Wooing
He parted his thin lips to speak but stuttered
and only broken sounds came from his breath.
He wanted to express his love but uttered
something that just scared his girl to death.
With every vain attempt the words he muttered
often sounded like the cooing of a dove
and with these bird sounds she became quite fluttered
much wanting to hear words of sincere love.
She whispered something softly in his timid ear
something that would cease his crazy coo.
In a silent smile he told her this he wanted to hear,
the clean, cut uttered words of “I love you.”
