Caren Krutsinger Poet Light Verse

Would You Still Love Me If

Would you still love me if I threw you under a bus?
Would you still love me if I taught children to cuss?
Would you still love me if I sat on your nose?
Would you still love me if I squashed your big toes?
 
Would you still love me if I had you arrested?
Would you still love me if I had your blood tested?
Would you still love me if I turned you in to the cops?
Would you still love me if I pulled out all the stops?
 
Would you still love me if I hid underarm hairs in your food?
Would you still love me if I laughed at your most awful mood?
Would you still love me if I smacked around your big brother?
Would you still love me if I sandwich-grilled your grandmother?
 
I am jotting down notes, deciding how evil I can be,
Figuring out what would make you stop loving me.
How much can I, do I, will I have to do to push you away?
You perpetually are still loving me, so I guess I will stay.

Quoth Theraven December 13, 2019 at 9:35 AM Caren, That's an armful of love in this Light Verse. On Roosevelt's 'Date Which Will Live in Infamy' no less. -Richard Caren Krutsinger December 13, 2019 at 11:12 AM Thank you Richard. I had a blast writing this one!

M. L. Kiser December 12, 2018 at 5:28 AM Ooh, very powerful! I think he'd be rethinking the underarm hairs in his food though. Good luck in the contest. Caren Krutsinger December 12, 2018 at 5:44 AM I like to throw some grossness in to see if anyone is actually reading this stuff whenever possible.

Charles Messina December 8, 2018 at 1:13 PM He has to be either a great person, a great lover, or a total idiot...lol Love this one, Caren :) Caren Krutsinger December 8, 2018 at 7:30 PM He has been my willing puppy for 50 years.
