Apparently **wyldelf** isn’t going to offer an opinion on getting her poem in the mail or on the boards, so I’m posting it here. Go easy on the critisisms, ok people? I had to dash this off while troubleshooting real world problems here at work. (I swear to God, if this network of ours was a horse, we’d have shot it months ago!) I still don’t care for the last two lines too much, but what the hell, it rhymes. ---

D’oh! I guess including the poem would be a nice idea. I really didn’t know what to write the poem about, so the poem’s about not knowing what the hell to write about: **For wyldelf** by **Crunchy Frog** I know not what to say of a beauty so rare. The descriptions of you simply spiral around In my mind, yet not one of them worthy to share. You transcend any comments considered profound. A mere portrait of words your allure would defy. More then phrases and rhymes would such loveliness need To convey its true worth, which words only imply. It is nearly enough to cause madness indeed. From your side of the world does your beauty reach out To envelop my heart and enshroud ev’ry thought And I wonder however did I do without This so wondrous insanity of mine you have wrought. I can think of but one thing to say – this simple decree: If it is as you wish, then I shall make it be. ---

I know that, I know that. A little attention now and then is all I ask for, Crunchy my man. 🙂 Also you can wish me luck in advance for my examinations next week. 😉 I’ll pretend you didn’t write me a poem. You _are_ my favorite brittle amphibian. ---

Dear **Crunchy** , What you have done here is just the sweetest. I have never had a thread about me or a love poem written for me. I am completely without words … Though it doesn’t change the fact I think you acted a trollop I just wanted to know that I am willing to give our Virtual Marriage another shot. I will have to sit down and think of a poem to write for you. So keep checking here! Check your email in a bit too. ---

**Dear Crunchy Frog** I’ve read your thread And considered what to do Then afterwards I went to bed And even dreamed of you I’ve though about it All day long And wondered how I felt I laid it all On the table The cards that life has dealt From silent stalker I did progress Then became your wife And then you went And gathered more You twisted in that knife. With Nym I share you And gladly so I love her dearly too But then you went And shopped around Weren’t we enough for you? Then I thought It’s rude not to share So go and have your fun Just remember dear That I am here And I am number one! ---

_adjusting his hastily retrieved neck-tie_ okay frogman, your gettin’ cooked!!! not that it matters, how do you plead? now, papers I’ve recieved from my client say “screw half, I want it all, plus his balls in a glass jar”. am just waiting on the legal translation of that before we can proceed. ---

Hello **wyldelf** , Sorry I didn’t respond sooner, but I usually only post from work and I’ve had the last couple days off. I also just saw your email a few minutes ago. I’ve sent you a reply. And sweetie, I’m sure **kristoph** is a good guy and all, but don’t you think you’d be better off with a lawyer who knows the difference between “your” and “you’re”? You know you’re the first person who ever wrote me a poem? That is so sweet! So, did you really dream of me, or was that just so it’d rhyme?😉 I dreamt about eating Skittles last night. I wonder what that’s all about? Why can’t I have good dreams anymore, like the kind I had back in high school? Anyway that’s beside the point. The point is I loved the poem and I meant no disrepect by not responding sooner - it’s just that I wasn’t around to respond. Are we still getting divorced then? ---

I’ve just checked the Valentine’s thread where **wyldelf** called me an ego slut. I think she’s right. Why else would I have accepted so many offers of marraige. So at the risk of getting myself in trouble with my other wives, I’m asking for a divorce from **Sily Rabbit** (sorry sweetie, but judging from the Valentine’s thread, you’ll do alright for yourself), **Miss B Haven** (with a name like that you’re sure to be snatched up again in no time), and **little\*bit** (where have you been anyway? Hope everything’s ok). So I’m now down to just 2 virtual wives, **wyldelf** and **Nymysys** , if they’ll both still have me. ---

I dunno, baby, I’m not doing too shabbily in the Vday thread. I may not need you anymore. And I know you offered me my own thread, but I don’t want to be an ego slut like some people. \ You have a lot of wooing to do, methinks. 😃 Maybe you should iron out this wyld thing (pun intended) and then you can concentrate on me. Priorities, my friend, priorities. ---

> [@](#): > > \*Originally posted by Nymysys \* > **I dunno, baby, I’m not doing too shabbily in the Vday thread. I may not need you anymore.** Great. Now I’ll be traded in like an old Dodge. ☹ > [@](#): > > **You have a lot of wooing to do, methinks. 😃** Is this going to require another poem? Just read the one I wrote earlier, you can see I’m not very good at that sort of thing. What I lack in talent though, I make up for in… um… well it _does_ rhyme and have a meter. ---
