Some people call me sentimental, <br />they might be right in saying that. <br />I am a big softie at heart. <br />I get choked when I hear sad stories, <br />and when someone has found someone <br />they lost touch with years ago. <br />Don’t ask me why it happens, <br />because I couldn’t honestly tell you why. <br />I am supposed to be a macho man, <br />but some things can melt this heart of stone. <br />Especially when it comes to animals, <br />they can wrap me around their tiny paw, <br />and there is nothing I can do. <br />They sit and stare at me, <br />with big sad looking eyes, <br />and I am putty in their paw. <br />They know it and play on it, <br />because I am a big softie, <br />little ole sentimental me.<br /><br />David Harris<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/little-ole-sentimental-me/
