Buy A Vowel?

I didn’t give up.

I never gave up.


You came home

From the wonderland

We all call Florida,

Only to find

A rousing game

Of Wheel of Fortune

Developed across your lawn.


Your answer was almost

Certain, in my mind, yet

I never knew with you.

I didn’t give up.


The giant letters are scrambled

Like an aggressive opening

Of your favorite candy, those

Small treats, every single one tattooed

With that same iconic “M”.


Alex, I’ll take “yes or no”

For a true daily double.

Answer is: Your night of fun

Will be nothing but divine

With you know who, but first

You must answer this question.

With your answer,

I was a sure participant in

Final Jeopardy.

I didn’t give up.


My final jeopardy answer:

“Pick you up at five?”
