What a Woman Wants!

What does a woman want?

To carry her on your laps and lock your tongue in her's till she swoons to the Happy Valley;

to look into her eyes and sing like a nightingale: 'I'll love you till the heavens are no more';

to listen and listen when she speaks and reply as if a Delphic oracle: 'I understand, I understand';

to give her a bouquet of Queen of the night and say to her: 'You're the loveliest flower in Eden';

to pat her hair swearing she's beautiful in mid winter and smiles as the seraphs;

to carry the shopping basket after her and open her the door lest she hurt her delicate fingers;

to hold her in parts forbidden to mention and make her feel like a woman in the darkness of your bedroom;

to rest her head upon your shoulder and let her weep in baby manner as you caress her back and sing her a lullaby;

these are what a woman wants!
