I Love Me

I take myself out on a date
And say, "Im looking fine"
I choose a most romantic place,
For me to wine and dine.
And when I compliment myself,
I oh so nearly blush,
As I confess, that I love me
And Im my biggest crush!

we hardly realize at times that we like ourselves that it becomes our failing and we fail to see that whatever people criticize us for is right.

(sorry abt those comments. i was just trying to have some good, clean fun with cj. i'm sorry if i hurt you :( and btw, you needn't rub it in by saying that you'd give me a better title if u were as creative. i'm not half as innovative as you are. and thats not flatterY!)

That's a swift change of track, Nicole...
From serenely serious to free-spiritedly frothy, you have an amazing range.
Keep it up....

not bossy at all and as for shubber. . .later mate later when all is dark and dim i will slip around to slip a rather unpleasant thing under the bed clothes so watch out!
sameer is spot on. you have an incredible range. if you were a restaurant your menu would be the envy of everybody

and PS, self praise is good for the soul

Shubho-> well, you didnt hurt me. I can take a joke, you know! :D
And I really did mean it when I said that you are very creative and well you are also very talented. No false praise, I promise.

Sameer-> So do you guys think Im a chameleon or what??

Naveen-> Thanks

Sunrise-> Yes

Anil-> Glad to see u here!

CJ-> Self-praise is forbidden for males! The breed has humongous egos that need to be kept under control!!!

ahhh..
such an important point you have made!
:))
but truly not loving oneself is and can be a very destructive thing. Under the fun ditty is a load of wisdom!

Sameer said...

You and a chameleon, never!!
But your poetic expression is sure like one.

nicole, you are a gem!! i love this poem, it's sweet and exceedingly brilliant. somehow the vanity is masked by a genuine affection, i don't know how you do it, maybe it's your smile.
i'm really glad billy put you on his list of 100 bloging poets, otherwise i wouldn't have had the treat of reading this lovely little poem.
best,
katy
