NaPoWriMon - Day 3 - The fan letter

The prompt today for NaPoWriMo is to write a poem in the form of a fan letter to a celebrity. Well, there is one man I drool over (sorry hubby!) though I have been told by a friend in Italy that there he is a minor celebrity, but here, for me, he is my number one!

This is very tongue in cheek and written in the form of a limerick. Rather more than a fan letter really...I got carried away! I hope it gives you a laugh. I certainly had fun writing it.

The Fan Letter

(to Michele Riondino)

I’m sure you get letters like these

All the time but mine’s different, so please

Just hear what I’m saying

It’s no game I’m playing

I just want to see you striptease!

I think you are sexy and hot

And I’d like to see all that you’ve got

Could you ‘yes’ my request

And I’ll give you my best

In fact I will give you my lot.

I’m glued to the box when you’re on

And I’m heart broken when you are gone

But I’ve got the box set

And it’s just like we’ve met,

Get ready coz I’ll see you anon.

There’s one thing I need you to know

My Italian is poor and so slow

Do you come with subtitles?

Though words are not vital

Our bodies will speak like a pro

My mobile and email are waiting

My heart and my body pulsating

For a word of reply

Send me tickets, I’ll fly

And soon we’ll be formally dating.

Michele Riondino, star of The Young Montalbano
