PURELY PLATONIC

 

I loved Sally a lot though just platonic

You might even say we were symbiotic

Friendship stemming from times historic

Always together like something comic

Our thoughts and desires were esoteric

Finding partners was the normal topic

We both needed a relationship romantic

The search was fast becoming frantic

 

She started feeling like an old neurotic

Personally, I was bordering on psychotic

So, we planned a holiday to places tropic

On the stylish concord flying supersonic

It was our first time travelling avionic

To North America first via transatlantic

Then past the Indies to the south pacific

To a tropical desert island once volcanic

 

Our search for love is now quite chronic

If we find no one will we begin to panic

Could we search the area topographic

Should we view the island panoramic

Or should we relax and not be pathetic

Going on the beach doing things athletic

Going in the sea doing things aquatic

Enjoying ourselves let’s not be pedantic

 

Alone in each other’s company harmonic

The evening birdsong sounds symphonic

The sultry air heavy with scents exotic

Fresh ice cubes cracking in gin and tonic

Her smiling countenance at once hypnotic

Deep passions stir with thoughts erotic

Knowing smiles exchanged but not sardonic

Confusion turmoil and thoughts chaotic

 

I want her now like a strong narcotic

We can resist no more this desire titanic

Our joint surrender is almost telepathic

We then make love to be more specific

Fulfillment reaching heights ecstatic

Loves consummated passions quite prolific

To give more details would not be politic

As my feelings for her now are honorific

Her inner beauty exposed and optimistic

Our hearts filled with a love gigantic

Our minds awash with thoughts poetic

Our future sealed and that’s fantastic

Finding heart’s desire so close is ironic

How was it possible we were so myopic

We had to cross the globe how idiotic

Our soul mates found that’s terrific
