Unlikely Love

The coast is clear,
this is not one of your haunts,
enough miles away that you will not feel
or know what I whisper here,
what words of love I dangle,
what bubbles of bliss I blow.
Here we have not danced,
no tango,
not even a cha cha,
so you won't care if "I love you"
slips out,
not even if i yodeled it
from the Empire State,
and make disconcerted
a boy scout or two.
So in precious concealment,
and delicious disguise,
I say I love you sweet man.
And it does not count
toward my quota,
or against me
anywhere, but my heart.
