20 hit singles!

Love poems? Advertising copy? What's the difference? (Not much.)

These poems are inspired from the Valentine’s Day issue of the Improper Bostonian.

Four course meal
I love you. You are that special something for that special someone that is me. You are an unforgettable cruise. You are live entertainment and dancing. You are a fully climate controlled deck. You are a complimentary glass of champagne upon boarding. And a complimentary rose. You are a four course meal I want to eat every night. I love you.

Everything I want
You are everything I want right where I want it. You are pet friendly. You are a million dollars that includes private parking. You are free shuttle service and a 24-hour concierge. I will always take your appointments.

You are my cropped jacket
You are my 10. You are my must-have for the season. You are my cropped jacket. My something silver. My patent, flat shoe, and eyelet. You are my BIG THING. (I want to show you my above-the-knee hemline.)

Green
You make me feel new and green. You are an oasis of open space. You are better than one bedroom, one bedroom plus, two bedroom, two bedroom plus. I want you in three bedrooms. You say you are pre-construction, but you feel finished to me.

20 hit singles!
20 hit singles! Are you a native of Rochester, New York with two bronze metals and one silver? Are you something exotic you ate on a memorable night out while playing the flute? Are you an intoxicating blend from charcoal, wax and collage paper? Ethereal, yet down to earth and extremely from Turkey? A tongue twister with free time to scour flea markets? A dot com with stints ripping up slopes? An occasional model and former mountain bike? Are you the city’s hottest sushi place (and a cat owner)? A child’s cause? A rising star? Mikhail Gorbachev and Reagan International Airport? Do you never have a dull moment? Do you want one? 20 hit singles!
