How Did I Love Thee
How did I love thee? Let me count the ways. 1. On a football
field. Did you count the plays? 2. On a lonely beach, with the tide rolling
in. 3. In the back of a car, now that was a sin. 4. On a mountain top with
the sun shining down 5. In the swimming pool I thought I would drown. 6.
In a rocking chair, wow, that time was sweet. 7. In the shower stall where I
washed off your feet. 8. In the dining room with the pepper and salt. 9.
Out on the trampoline, that was nobody's fault. 10. Under the park bench with
all the grass, and the dew.
Come to think of it sucker, I really loved
you! But, along came a new skirt, you thought you must chase. So, I hope
that the Gods, now, rearrange your face.
