Necktie Love Poem by Paul Hartal

Fred was masculine,
long and wide.
He was made
of synthetic fabric, mainly of acrylic,
which displayed a blue and purple pattern
of geometrical objects:
a large colony of small triangles,
squares and circles.

On the other hand Jennifer was
very feminine, small and undulating.
She was woven from a mixture of
silk and linen threads that yielded
a red and green fabric featuring
a lovely floral design.
Fred and Jennifer first met
at a birthday party of friends
and fell in love at first sight.

The following day Fred invited Jennifer
to go to a city park and they spent
a wonderful afternoon together.
