Not sure I'm doing this right Maureen and can't match your format,
also not sure this is in the spirit you were aiming for so scrap it if not.

Collaborative poem
A famous poet once did say –
a young man’s fancy turns to love
and knowledge comes but wisdom lingers …
my thought’s more push leads to shove.
Five young farmers – true love lacking
dared to share all on TV …….
how for true love they were searching.
Aim for all – matrimony.
Brave, they came to meet the ladies
chosen for their attributes…
their compatibility
displayed in heels or cowboy boots.
Would a spark, spark with their meeting?
Would that spark flare into flame?
Or would romance wilt and wither?
Therein rests the romance game.

Now it would help I’m sure it’s true,
that if per chance I’d watched that show.
But none the less I’m always game,
to pick up pen and have a go.
And as I’ve known a girl or two -
though long ago I must admit.
With wooing days now far behind,
I must turn back the clock a bit.
I’m in my eighties still quite fit,
And have what you could call a farm.
Well, big backyard if truth be told,
but has some well-known old world charm
I’m out of practice with the chat,
But if the girls are keen to match.
and game to give romance a go,
I guess I could be quite a catch.

I may not always succeed in making a difference, but I will go to my grave knowing I at least tried.
