There are things that I love
Like the cooing dove
The smile of the child
And the fauna in the wild…
Flowers that bloom
And the green waving grass
Tiny tots who scream
And run about in class
Myriads of things
Do make me glad
But there are also things
I hate, or make me scared
Who could ever love
The nocturnal flying bat
Or come to peace with
The atrocious gnawing rat
Another thing I hate
Is a snarling, barking dog
Next on my list
Is a filthy dirty log..
Hypocrites who lie
Conmen who do cheat
Are some of the very people
I’d rather never meet
The list of both is endless
So getting it off my chest
So that I can wipe them off the slate
And attend to what is best
