Smile and laugh Love and Sing And she's just the sweetest thing So you take advantage Push her just a bit To see how much she takes "Careful dear" Warning from a smiling face "I might bite back someday" We laugh it off and continue chatting And it's funny Because you think I'm kidding Angel wrapped in pastel pink A tiny harmless waif She complains when you stomp on bugs And begs you to treat your cat with kindness "Careful dear" Warning in a loving tone "One day it'll come back to you" And we carry about our merry way And it's funny Because you think I'm kidding And you never knew your pastel angel Could hit so hard, did you? And you never knew what it was like To be stomped on before now. I just smile into your eyes I bet you never thought I could be cruel "Careful dear" Warning from soft innocent lips "Don't try to call my bluff" |
Nice and original. I like the concept. The repitition of the line: And it's funny Because you think I'm kidding. It works well. You might think about putting that line at the end too. Tie a nice bow around the whole poem. Great job. | Posted on 2006-04-26 00:00:00 | by Scribner | [ Reply to This ] | |
