Please ... Check Yes ... Or No

Please ... Check Yes ... Or No

Little Girl ... me, as a child

My little hand hid the paper beneath it

I was writing a love note, drawing blocks

For the answer ... yes or ... no

Do you love me, I ask

My stomach feeling butterflies

As I waited for his answer

On my desk, lay a folded note

I picked it up, slowly opened it

My eyes instantly drawn to a block

That was checked, with a heart

Drawn around it ... yes! it said

Making my heart soar into the sky

He loves me, he loves me not

Yes, he loves me ... the butterflies fluttered

Tickling my stomach ... until I laughed in happiness!
