Cheap Date Nite: Walk Amongst Your Town

Do you have to be rich to go to places of beauty? Nope. Every city has a place, usually free, that highlights the city.

Walk with your wife or girlfriend, bring a book of poetry, an umbrella, something sweet to eat. You can even bring a thermos full of hot chocolate, or cool lemonade. Smile a lot; point at beautiful flowers or exquisite buildings. Then find a place that is private in a public space; lay out a blanket, pour your date a drink, give her some chocolate; open the book of Poetry to a poem that is romantic, and enjoy the moment together.

On the poetry First Thought:
Warning: A saccharoidal poem is hazardous to remaining cool and you may become too cheesy.

On the poetry Two:
Pablo Neruda is a good choice much better than something by Bukowski. Bukowski is great, but it is more private literature... not something I would read to get my wife feeling that warm feeling.

Here is one Poem to read together:

Tell me, is the rose naked or is that her only dress? Why do trees conceal the splendor of their roots? Who hears the regrets of the thieving automobile ? Is there anything in the world sadder than a train standing in the rain?
