She says, she also loves gazing <br />At the midnight sky… <br />That’s why she took physics, <br />Though it is a challenging subject <br />She knows each constellation by name <br />And she thinks my locks are <br />Beautiful! And there’s nothing <br />Odd about the way I talk <br />‘Tis just my ‘direct’ look that <br />Frightens her sometimes… <br />She loved the kudu mince <br />I made for supper last night <br />She wonders why I have a way <br />With words! ? I said ‘tis just <br />My heart speaking, not me! <br />Fine then, she says, but real <br />People are not supposed to <br />Fall in love so easily… <br />She smiles again and walks…<br /><br />LLM Mbatha<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/she-says-2/
