TOO GOOD TO BE TRUE

She may seem timid, innocent and naïve
Trying to let on she will do nothing but please
But other women can tell what is going on
She’s trolling for her next victim not dating fun

Sweetly passive she may seem to be
A switch from women who don’t give free
From other countries exotic beauties call to thee
Beware for things may not be what they seem to be

I know someone who married one of these
Dark exotic beauties as innocent as can be
After a year she emptied the bank account and left
Went home to her boyfriend after her theft

They had a baby together and lived on the money
Of her loving gullible American honey
The moral of this story is as plain as can be
If she seems too good to be true – this I can believe

About this poem:
This happened to a cousin of mine who married a dark haired beauty from South America - she wanted to come to America and live like a Queen. Took all his money and went back to South America and now living like a Queen with her boyfriend and their baby. True story. Beware! American women may not be all honey and pie - but at least some of us are honest.

Sorry for your cousin, dear poetess, I do not blame him: all that he wanted was to be happy with a beautiful wife, so that when he wakes up in the morning she is there beside shining with all her beauty, and then even a rainy day is bright; he wanted to have beautiful children, which is understandable, cause good looking people are more successful and lucky in life, they are more admired and loved. I would encourage him not to stop looking for his happiness. I am sure he will find her, as beautiful as he would like her to be, and honest and loyal into the bargain. It is a matter of luck and not giving up. Thank you for sharing this poem with us and Happy New Year!!!danceline dancingsanta gingerbread crazy choir

Marikia - I feel for those who are deceived. Even on here there is trolling unfortunately. My reference certainly does not apply to all women on here from other countries - but please beware guys.

I am reminded of the Bible verse which is one of my favorite because - face it I'm not a beauty! It gives me hope.

Proverbs 31:30New International Version (NIV)
30
Charm is deceptive, and beauty is fleeting;
but a woman who fears the Lord is to be praised.

How so cruel life can be sometimes Kathy.

I feel sorry for those victims. We just have to be careful. Our Father's prayer in the last "lead us not into temptation but deliver us from evil."

My prayer for him. Since then how is your cousin? Was he able to recover from that heinous act?

Good poem my friend

Hope your cousin GP recuperated from this misfortune. A nicely penned alerted poem, men should be careful as well as women. Easy money is all their target with no mercy. God has his plan for those who do harm to others it is a question of timing for sure...SM handshake

Very good awareness poem Kathy,
I think face to face is the only way to meet someone. Its difficult to be sure about any person's intentions.

My brother married a woman from Puerto Rico, and so far the only thing she stole from him was him being near his family, they live in New York City. He wants me to come, but I'm scared to go, maybe some day I'll do like I did with San Francisco and just go for it!daydream angel2

Hi there, a well written poem as usual bouquet

Not sure of the message, I am sorry about your family experience, and I am glad you said it's not all women.

Goes the same for Men, there are so many trolls on both sides, but real people surely are worth trying to get to know, you sometimes have to take a chance or life will pass you by so fast.
