The Unicorn Challenge

***

Waiting, standing, anticipating

Nerves alive, even grating

Never thought I’d feel elation

At a simple railway station

But here I am, debating

The choice of “online” dating

Pick an app, state your case

Everyone does it, no disgrace

Then decide to meet face to face

I should have just erased

The picture I had placed

Now I’m feeling so displaced

Train is coming, heart is raced—

Wow, can this be my mate?

They say all’s well that ends well

Think I’ve created a dream, a spell

But in fantasy I dwell

I think this date will turn out swell!
