Jack Ellison Poet Narrative

The Ways of Love

The way to a man's heart is through his belly

That's how the old saying goes

But to a woman's heart it's love sweet love 

She feels it down to her toes

We've all been programmed to live this way

It's not a knock against men

If love didn't continue as in olden times past

The world would most likely end

We all must follow the established patterns

In place since man first appeared

To try to invent some new rules at this stage

Is fraught with headaches and tears

So love away as you've always been doing

Be happy that you're able to feel

This unbridled joy that's known only to man

Enjoy life and love with much zeal

I believe that's why women bake so many yummy things... The smell alone will keep their men home... and outta less trouble in the end.
