Me and Mrs Jacobs

Love seems to remove sense
pursuing Mrs Jacobs
seemed so right
at the time
it's wrong to seek kisses
from a misses
that I knew
but love grew
I was smitten
bitten as it were
in a way
that gave no sway to
thinking straight
her every word
a fascination
thrilling my imagination
and it flooded all my senses
when she spoke
and this very day
I still can hear her say
"Michael, what was the capital
of the Ottoman Empire"
and I grandly announced:
"Constantinople
capital C o n s t a n t i n o p l e
Constantinople"
I'd prepared days for my moment
to please
oh, geez, she smiled
"Correct" she said
and that was that ...
approval, love fulfilled
they say the third grade's
much too young
for true love to be real
but all these decades later
it's what I still do feel
