Peacock vibrant azure
glanced at me displaying
his tail enigmatic smile
a pickup line normally
common only this one
spoke into my heart
the bar I met him at
offered nectar created
by the butterflies
served by dragonflies
tending the intoxicating drinks
whispering among themselves
how he came here once
a week on the same time
at the same time seeking
that one perfect mate
craning his neck he faced me
investigating my appearance
and inquiring about my health
he wanted to be sure his
potential mate would be able to
provide him with the attention
needed and a successor immortal
when his tail delicately brushed
my right cheek signifying it
was time to leave with him
leaving the bar I followed him
back to his nesting ground
when he blinked his eyes at me
and finally spoke,
"Thank you for being the vessel
of my life."
