Poem: A Spanish Love Story

Updated: Jun 19, 2022

Who doesn't dream of a 'perfect' love story - a fairy tale, which is the fairest of all. We crave for a tale of two hearts, a tale that novelizes itself into the most idyllic story. The desire is universal, but the universe has its own ways. They say true love is a farce, and there's no such thing as the 'perfect' love story. Well, they are wrong, because 'perfect' love stories do exist for I've seen plenty to be absolutely certain of that. But guess what? They are imperfect in many a ways - and it is those imperfections that make it 'perfect'.


What if friction never played a part in your love life?


It is perhaps the most investigated 'what if' - but for Flynn and Sofía, who met each other in Spain, friction never paved the way for even an ounce of pain. Their story is fictitiously 'perfect' - the kind of 'perfect' that is devoid of imperfections, and that's what makes their love life sail, making it a soothing, gleeful, and euphoric tale. But above all, it is absurd, impractical, and silly. And it is in this absurd, impractical, and silly world, that Sofía and Flynn got their story framed.

 

A Spanish Love Story


Flamboyant Flynn was a happy little kid

Once he went to a vacation in Madrid

Playful and frivolous and care-free as he

The thought of a holiday made him happy!


First day in Spain, and oh, what a shame!

It’d have been so fun if it wasn’t for the rain

So flamboyant Flynn was sad for a day

As he waited for better things to come his way


The very next day, the weather was fine

A sublime bright morning, in the Spanish sunshine

Madrid was bouncing, full of vigour and life

And flamboyant Flynn went on a long drive!


From Madrid to Bilbao and to Toledo, he went

And to all those places, of which, he once dreamt

He stopped for a pint, down the old Celta road

And flamboyant Flynn was anything but bored!


But something happened in the city of Seville

When we went on a trek, up in the hill

Flamboyant Flynn met a beautiful young girl

Whose twinkling eyes were as bright as a pearl

Her wavy locks were charmingly pretty

And flamboyant Flynn was struck by her beauty


Scintillating Sofía, was the beauty-queen’s name

And stealing her heart was Flynn’s only aim

A visit to Seville gave him the love of his life!

And how Flynn dreamt of having Sofía as his wife

They spent time together for quite some while

Talking, driving, and walking, mile after mile

Together they went, exploring the Spanish land

As flamboyant Flynn held Sofía’s soft hand


When his vacation in Spain came to an end

Scintillating Sofía was writhing in pain

Flynn was sad; he needed Sofía by his side

So he stayed in Spain for the rest of his life!


Living together happily, come what may

Nothing could dare get in their way!

Flynn and Sofía were made for each other

And soon one day, Flynn became a father!

A bundle of joy was a God-given bliss

And Sofía and Flynn had a loving little kiss


Their love was strong, and against all odds

They fought their way, and kept faith in God

Legend has it, they still live in Spain

Their love was so real that it could never really end

Scintillating Sofía and Flamboyant Flynn

Stayed together through thick and thin!
