This is a charming and fascinating poem, Fay, and one on a subject you don't often hear expressed in poetry. Many folks these days have gone from one relationship to another, sometimes having many liasions in the same year, others, only have one or two over several years. I guess one could say acquiring a second-hand lover is a lot like buying a used car. No matter what it's appearance tells you, there's bound to be some dents and flaws beneath the shiny surface! Yet, as your fine poem clearly points out, sometimes love is indeed better the second time around! Wonderful and witty poem, Fay! Carl.
