Duet

« Un roi sans divertissement est un homme plein de misères » (Blaise Pascal, Pensées).

And this is exactly a “divertissement”.
So, please, don't take it too much seriously. Take it for its real worth.
But if, in the end, I will have managed to give you a little bit of “divertissement”, well then… you will be Queens and Kings and I will be glad I have been your Jester.

A small remark. Linda, who had been as kind as to read my "divertissement", suggested I should introduce it as a telepathic conversation! (If you read it, you can understand the reasons).

But I don't consider it as a telepathic conversation, because in my opinion the bond shared by our couple is something vague and indistinct, a sharing of feelings, deeper than a simple telepathic connection. And more "romantic"!
But surely their bond is able to act along peculiar paths.
Exactly like it happens in this my short "poem".
And, for those who love Italian Opera, I suggest that they listen "The Barber of Seville", by Rossini (Act One, scene XX, the final: I'm referring to second part of this scene.)
That rhythm was in my head when I wrote my "Divertissement".
Maybe, if you agree, you may watch this.

A last thing: Thank you, justTripn, for your advice. As always.

Rating:
Here and there the language is very… allusive. Only that.
Genre:
Poem? Romance? Anyway, it’s very sweet (with a shimmer of…something HOT – But NOTHING is plainly shown!).
Summary:
How can I do this? If you read it, you will understand my intentions.
Spoilers:
No. This time not one spoiler.

The end?

Well, Saint Valentine...
Are you blushing?
Well then, quit watching! And listening!
After all, this is your day, but (first and foremost) it's their . . . feast!
And you too, my friends . . .
Stop observing, please.
Look the other way.
And, maybe, it's better you stick a pair of earplugs in your ears, too. To prevent your mind from wandering off it’s business.
And arm yourself with patience, because it sounds they will carry on their. . . work . . . a long time.
But you must understand: they are exchanging their . . . valentines!
