A National Boyfriend Day Poem

Before you become a husband

You have to pass the “boyfriend test,

And miraculously, I’ve done it four times,

Something I would have never guessed.

My friends would wager on the number of dates that I’d have

And I, myself, was beginning to wonder.

They set an over & under betting line at three

And all the action came in on the under.

You could say I was socially awkward,

An understatement at the very least.

And though I wanted to be a boyfriend,

Because of it the odds greatly decreased.

But I can cook and write poetry,

Those are valuable boyfriend skills.

And I as I gained relationship experience

I learned how to give a gal boyfriend thrills.

I have to say that I’m at my best

In two rooms in the house

So if you’re good in the kitchen and bedroom

You might go from boyfriend to spouse.

I did – four times!
