"Can someone make my simple wish come true?" Line 1
There are many lonely people in this world. In fact, the Beatles wrote a song about it. Cope's poem is just another example of the sad irony of the world today. In the poem, a man is putting a personal ad in a newspaper, desperately trying to find the love of his life. The irony lies in the question he asks repeatedly. His wish to find love is all but simple. In fact, he later in the poem has very specific things he wants in a woman. If this man had a more open heart and weren't so picky, he would most likely be happy with a woman. This lonely heart is attempting to reach out to the world, frantically calling out to find a significant other to be his companion.
