I haven't done a dialogue poem in awhile and I'm afraid I'm losing the knack, assuming I ever had one...
You think you found yourself a keeper Do you young sir You look into those big blue eyes And you see glimpses of forever Aye I’ve been there myself, young man I saw those cherry red lips And I imagine babies, carried on her hips Nights spent in her arms I saw forever Reflected in her eyes Yes siree bob I had me a keeper for sure Till I found out the gleam In those pretty blue eyes Were merely greed Nothing more Nothing less She saw me for a sucker Someone to buy her things Lots of pretties she needed Rouge and diamond rings To keep those ruby red lips a smiling I sold out my body and soul But then I ran out of money And she went right out that door So look a little deeper, young one Deeper than pretty blue eyes And ruby lips that can cheat you Tell you nothing but lies

fortuneately not true of all the young ladies out there but there are a few and I have met a few of themin my day that this is a good warning to the youth both male and female to be a little alert with who you give your heart to.
