Oh Nicholas <br /> <br /> <br />Oh Nicholas don’t be so ridiculous. <br />Cos I don’t like it in the daytime. <br />The time and place for me to choose <br /> you know quite well that I’ll refuse. <br /> <br />Although you’re champing at the bit <br /> I tell you I’ll have none of it. <br />Before the evening shadows fall <br />you have no chance, no chance at all. <br /> <br />He persists but she won’t yield, <br />his rising anger ill concealed. <br /> She’s adamant that she won’t play <br /> and sends him firmly on his way. <br /> <br />Should he return at eventide <br />She’ll demonstrate her other side, <br />she welcome him with open arms <br /> and grant him access to her charms. <br /> <br />Although she thinks she’s in command <br /> eventually she’ll understand. <br />This is the end of this romance <br />which never really stood a chance. <br /> <br />They’re simply incompatible. <br />A fact that’s inescapable <br />When he is in the mood she’s not <br /> and when she is he’d rather not. <br /> <br />They do not seem to realise <br /> that lovers have to compromise <br />I can assure you this true <br /> it’s something couples learn to do. <br /> <br />If you’re prepared to show you care <br /> it does not matter when or where <br /> The evening or the afternoon <br />as long as you can keep in tune. <br /> <br />If you cannot its best to part <br /> you have no chance right from the start <br /> But those who can will surely find <br />love pays the clock but little mind. <br /> <br />3-Feb-08<br /><br />ivor or ivor.e hogg<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/oh-nicholas/
