Ode

Ode

I said stop!

you bugger

don’t flutter!

stay still

stay calm

don’t set an alarm!

you bugger

come back

don’t steal smiles

don’t flee

you mugger..

You stupid thing

you make me stutter

U slip away

like slithery butter

each time I try

to hold you still,

Against my will

you fly away,

Crazy jay

Yet, you make me smile,

yes, you do

with unease

yes, you woo

n my hand

as I rest

on my chest

to quiet you down

I try my best

believe me it’s hard

so, behave

be on guard

Guard my sanity

Drop that vanity!

Will u please?

Let me be at ease!

Wait, you bugger

Don’t run away

Unannounced

Stay put, stay here

Or I’d pounce

Huh!!

Pouncing doesn’t work

I know!

That wile smile

You show

But you know what?

I’m way too smart

I’ll sit still

follow the drill

Close my eyes

Let love rise

Drop disguise

And turn wise

There u come!

Yes, now I feel

You are near

Oh dear!

I like it this way

Sit close by,

slightly away

I know now the trick

Eh, pretty slick

No wish, no vain

No desire no pain

Is when

you came

‘Creativity’,

I see you

And your lovely game!
