https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Flirting
I feel it seems very diffcult especially in a multi cultural society to flirt in the manner described… and it might hurt someone a lot if you pretended to be interested in them just to pass the time.Would we like it?I think not because many of us are more sensitive than we let on.And if we got someone interested then threw them over GOK the effect.
I may be abit old fashioned but I think courting is better than flirting
Human bipeds have two sets of digits.
The hands and the feet can both fidget.
I used to tap on the table
Till a spirit was able
To come to my aid with a widget.
I was going through a hard adolescence…
Am I now approaching my due senescence?
I irritated my Ma
So she shouted,you’re bizarre.
You’ve got OCD built into your essence.
I asked if I had inherited it from her.
She gave me a furious stare.
She said,we all have our scruples
But yours have quadrupled.
I loved you but now I don’t care.
That seemed very immoral to me.
She gave me no warm sympathy.
So I scratched my own skin
Which was in any case too thin…
But it helped to scare off a stray flea.
If we’re neurotic it is not a crime.
We may learn how to use it in time.
Though tapping on wood
Does one no good.
I have found my salvation in rhyme.

A diphthong sounds quite like a beast,
As big as a camel,at least.
But it consists of two vowels,
Which might make a cat yowl,
As they marry and form just one piece.
Mauve has one spelled “au”.
When pronounced it sounds quite like an O.
Historical inheritance
Makes English a powerhouse.
But don’t go to the meadow to mau.
In meadow ea rhymes with e as in bed
As Oscar Wilde probably said
For he was very clever,
Although he was never
Thought enough of until he was dead.
Manley Hopkins was a great English poet;
A priest too, with a life hard and heroic.
He’d have elected for silence
But got sent to Ireland.
By self control he became what’s called stoic.
And how about William Blake?
Would ia be a diphthongal mistake?
Are all vowels side by side
Diphthongs as defined?
Look, another pair’s there minds to slake.
Well I think I may have written sufficient
As my mind feels both lazy and inefficient
But these intriguing rare words
Are like humming birds
Some other tongues might seem deficient
How my heart sings
