by Simbo Rumblebelly A poem to celebrate the wedding of Miss Yllisa and Master Loimos, about the day a lad makes the bold decision to declare his love for a lass! Should I? Choices will I face today Decisions soon will come my way Thinking, should I, all the while So should I frown, or should I smile? Should I snooze, or should I rise And wipe the sleep from weary eyes? Should I put on something smart Or clothes that soon will fall apart? Should I pour a cup of tea And sweeten it, one lump or three? Should I stay sat in my chair Or should I take the morning air? Should I walk amongst the trees Or in the fields to feel the breeze? Should I keep along the track Or turn around and wander back? Should I strike a steady pace Or stride ahead as in a race? Should I pause outside her gate And worry if I should be late? Should I knock upon her door To knock one time, and then once more? Should I greet her with a hug Or shyly smile and give a shrug? Should I stare into her eyes Or turn to my gaze towards the sky? Should I care the sky's not blue And should I dare say... ..."I love you"?
