A Love Poem

Cameron Barnes, Grade 12

I’ve got a good friend

That I love very much,

Whom I hope this poem won’t offend

I just thought I’d take the time to say

How much I appreciate him

This Valentine’s Day

He’s short

He’s cute

(The gentle sort)

He has perfect blonde hair

And makes my day better

Just by being there

He likes long walks,

And he never interrupts

When we have our deep talks

He’s got a forehead you just want to snog

Man, I do like him

Good thing he’s my dog
