i could write a book

a-b-c-d-e-f-g

i never learned to spell

at least

not well

one

two

three

four

five

six

seven

i never learned to count

a great amount

but my busy mind is burning to use what learning i've got

i won't waste any time

i'll strike while the iron is hot

if they asked me

i could write a book

about the way you walk

and whisper

and look

i could write a preface

on how we met

so the world would never forget

and the simple secret of the plot

is just to tell them that i love you a lot

and the world discovers

as my book ends

how to make two lovers

of friends
