Poem for Alice
Beloved Cricket,
I know you're aware
By the way I stare.
Sure I'm mad
But only mad for you.
I don't listen to your constant insulting,
For all it does is, pass my hat brim.
The way you grin
Makes my heart sing.
And the way you try to hide your face while you blush
Makes me love you a bit more than I should, as such.
I wish I knew what you were thinking
When I see your eyes twinkling.
Just stop and stare
And let me show you how much I care.
Why can't you see?
You are the one made for me.
Try and try as I might
You still refuse in my sight.
I am willing to get your attention and at bay
But clearly there is nothing much more left to say.
My thoughts for you are black and white
Just like all the colors that are seen during the night.
Just take a chance
Just try to fall into my romance.
