Lifes Notebook

What I Like and What I Hate

What I like and what I hate

 

I like long sweet kisses that last for hours

I hate that some people abuse their powers

I like all kinds of baby’s pretty little feet.

I hate having to always watch what you eat.

I like poetry that doesn’t even rhyme.

I hate that certain people, are right all the time.

I like little kids who say funny things.

I hate trying to get meat off from chicken wings.

I like people who make me laugh.

I hate it when some things are cut in half.

I like things to somehow make sense.

I hate that my neighbor wants to move my fence.

I like when a man shows you his love.

I hate crowds of people who push and shove.

I like riding motorcycles that go real fast.

I hate it when my car runs out of gas.

I like it when people believe in God.

I hate trying to use a fishing rod.

I like it when little babies coo and sigh.

I hate when kids get hurt and they cry.

I like it when parents are good to their kids.

I hate it when little babies die from S.I.D.S

I like people who love to share

I hate it when people don’t seem to care

I like that there is still good in most of us

I hate it when my kids miss their school bus

I like when the newscasters have good stories to tell

I hate what I saw when the towers fell

I like that my little girl acts just like me

I hate that they’ll be more wars for my children to see

I like the way people generally have good hearts

I hate the way that my hair wants to part

I like the fact that this poem is nearly thru

I hate it that I don’t know more about you

I’d like to hear what you like and hate

And I hate it, but for that, I’ll just have to wait.
