Love Needs No Names
by CD Richards

The prompt is "by whom are you smitten?"
I'll join all of those who've been bitten
Here's my confession
(Some might say transgression)
But hearken to what I have written:
now...
Let me go out on a limb
I wouldn't say this on a whim
Her heart is pure gold
Her hands never cold
She's one in a million, dear ______
but...
I think all here would agree that
This girl is a bit of a brat
She gives paws for thought
She's a really good sort
And she goes by the moniker ______
and of course...
In these hallowed halls of Fanstoria
She keeps all the lads in euphoria
She's bright and she's smart
And excels at her art
There's no one else quite like our ______
not forgetting...
There's one to whom all the boys hurtle
More lovely by far than crepe myrtle
When she sets the stage
Her stories engage
Her friends here, they all call her ______
then again...
He really gets into my psyche
His talent is boundless, by crikey
Believe when I say
I don't lean that way
But I really admire our ______
and so...
You wouldn't get more than a nickel
For observing my heart is quite fickle
Understand, I request
That I write this in jest
Or I might just wind up in a pickle
finis...
The moral here is, and I quote:
"My poor heart has not yet been smote"
The right one for me
It's quite plain to see
Is the one who will give me their vote
