The Egotist
« on: Oct 24, 2015, 12:43:48 PM »
                                                   How Do I Love Me.

                                     How do I love me.Let me count the ways.
                           I love my smile that brightens up so many peoples days.
                           I love my gentleness....never ever cruel
                            And that I am tolerant  with those who are a fool.
                           And as I walk my rear doth sway...and the strongest of men can't look away.
                           I love the thrill my nails would bring.
                           The pain ... the agony... the sting.
                           I love my eye that cannot lie...That show true love to just one guy.
                          And ,of course,my shape is perfectly formed when plainly clothed...no need to adorn.
                          I love the way eyes follow me, from strangers who delight to see.
                          O'h how I wish i could talk to ME... Hear the things I say..
                          To listen to my words of wit...and listen all the day.
                          I love me oh! so very much...I wish I could be 'thee'.
                          And then I could look all day ... at lovely ,lovely me.

  Please excuse any mistakes ..

Scrumpy, well done. I used to love that song of Don Maclean's 'Everybody loves me, baby, what's the matter with you?'  ;D

Poetic license Scrumpy., but heart warming and gentle to read.  Love is a subject I would not dare broach even for myself. I am reminded of a phrase I once heard "If you make friends with yourself you will never be alone".  You strike me as one of those people.

Oh dear, it was meant to be a compliment scrumpy.  I did not see the poem as egotistical at all, just an attractive portrait of a woman living comfortably within her own skin.  Taken in that context, my quotation is intended to be going along with that general theme. To me, a mere male, it seems that a woman with such self appreciation would be an interesting companion.

It's made me wonder how Citizen68 is keeping.

She stopped posting soon after her partner died.
