Sweet Lover


On the first day,

It gave birth to the very first sweet.

But it was cold outside.

 

On the second day,

It gave the sweet a father.

But it was cold outside.

 

On the third day,

It gave the sweet a brother.

But it was cold outside.

 

On the fourth day,

It gave the sweet a friend.

But it was cold outside.

 

On the fifth day,

It gave the sweet a lover-

And it may sound simple or silly,

but now the sweet was happy,

And it was cold outside.
