Online Dating: the right Recipe

"Wanted: Alive" - was what she thought.
What she was marketing it seemed no man sought.
Not looking for a 10, a nice ol' 7 would do,
I want some one that will enter each relationship
like it was new...not like some old worn out shoe.

There's recipe for 'coupling' but it's not hard to make,
a bunch of fun - be it diced or whole,
a cup of kindness, for goodness sake.
Interests in common, heart to heart talks from the soul,
Listening well, with a pinch of play & it's ready to bake.
Frost it with romance,~ it's a leap of faith you should take.

About this poem:
I was thinking how many really good hearted and good companion + qualified people get passed by because they lack movie star looks - or the 'wow' factor. And in the process so much goodness is missed.

Thank you for this wonderful piece and welcome to the Corner. Look forward to reading more, my name is Jessewine

Poets write of romance, mostly more in hope (pretty forlorn hope, at that) than expectation. It would be nonsense to suppose that packaging isn't important, but that doesn't invalidate your point that what's inside the package is pretty important too.

The occasional success stories here on this poetry site prove it is possible find the right recipe for cooking up a storm.

A good write
