Valentine's Special

by Fro Macoon

I like a lot of things,

I love a whole lot of things.

Like

My mom typing

Her fingers fly across the keyboard

But I LOVE

the sound,

A tapping noise all at once

and

My rabbit,

I love my rabbit,

The way she hops up to me,

But I LOVE

The the way she sleeps,

With her white, furry stomach up to the cloudless sky

and

I like the moon,

How it shines down on my window,

But I LOVE

How it dapples my bed,

Washing it in liquid silver,

and

I like ice,

Ice on the street,

Filling the cracks with

Cold glass

But I LOVE

How it always deceives me

and

I like the ocean,

How it laps against the shore,

Constant push and pull

But I LOVE

The noise 

As I lie down to sleep.

I love a lot of things.
