What Love Is
It's time to write a poem of love
Let me see now where do I start?
Love is like a feeling you get
Somewhere deep in your heart
It doesn't feel like heartburn
Though many men swear it might
I think it's something about making up
Right after you've had a fight
Love is being considerate
I don't even know what that means
I just needed a four syllable word
To fill in the inbetweens
Love is something about the toliet seat
Do I leave it up or down?
Or eating that leftover meatloaf
With a smile instead of a frown
Love is sharing her dentures
When you have an apple to eat
Or maybe not holding your nose
When she asks you to rub her feet
Now ain't my wife so lucky
To have a man like me?
I may not know what love is
But I'm as funny as I can be
