I Like the Lilt of That

>center>I LIKE THE LILT OF THAT

Us …..I like the lilt of that. 

Us! 

For so long it was only me 

Just me. 

And I hate the feel of that. 

But then, from out of the blue, 

Came you. 

We …. I like that too. 

I plus you is we. 

Us is you plus me. 

Look at it how you will. 

That it how it has to be. 

I’ll say it one more time. 

Us!
