Hard and Soft
I like a pillow that is soft,
A mattress that is hard,
For people have their preferences
In soft and hard regard.
I much prefer a crusty roll
To one that’s like a puff
And vegetables, when cooked, to me
Are never hard enough.
In jewelry and music,
What I favor’s big and bold.
The delicate and silky,
Though quite lovely, leave me cold.
When contemplating hard and soft
There is so much to find
But I will leave the obvious
To picture in your mind.
