I like

~

 

I like, 

pizza and novels,  

petunias and daydreams 

Balconies, nighttime and  

stardust and moonbeams 

Sunrises, roosters and  

fresh morning dew 

But most of all,  

what I like best is you 

 

I like, 

jellybeans, limousines,   

seagulls and beaches 

Poems and drawings and  

someone who teaches 

Strawberry bubblegum,  

tasty to chew 

But most of all,  

what I like best is you 

 

I like,  

gardens and arbors 

with pink jasmine clinging 

Holding hands, kissing while 

bluebirds are singing 

Lions and tigers and 

trips to the zoo 

But most of all, 
what I like best is you 

 

I like, 

Vanilla ice cream with  

caramel and sprinkles 

Irons we use to get out 

all the wrinkles 

Something that's old as 

opposed to brand new 

But most of all, 
what I like best is you 

 

I like, 

magazines, straw hats,  

 cucumbers and pickles 

Slippers, pajamas and  

down pillow tickles 

Green beans and cabbage in  

grandma's beef stew 

But most of all,  

what I like best is you 

 

I like, 

laughter and smiles and 

purple toothbrushes 

Mushrooms and trumpets,  

a child who blushes 

Still, I must say since 

the words are so true 

What I like best, yes, 

will always be you

I could have kept going, but I didn't want to bore you. : )

Will once again you have made me hungry. Your poems always so full of vivid imagery, usually bright and light in nature they leave an upbeat feeling so nice. They are always enjoyable to read.
