-Singing Lobster-

What If I was a big red lobster?
And I had big red claws to.
Every time that you came near me,
I would sing a song for you.

That would make me a singing lobster.
There's not too much more to say,
But do you think you would run and hide,
Or could you just be okay?

What If I was a singing lobster?
Do you think you'd be my friend?
I would not want you to run away.
I don't think my heart would mend.

If I were just a singing lobster,
I do not think I would see,
I'm no more than an ocean dweller,
What else can a lobster be?

This is the first "light-hearted" peiced i've ever written.

I liked this. It reminded me of that singing lobster out of the Disney version of "The Little Mermaid". It was quite interesting. Nice one.

This one was good, it was funny and serious at the same time. I liked it. Yea! A light hearted one! I've found that when you start writing those, more of the same will come and it'll be easier to write 'em after awhile. I don't know, maybe it wasn't even hard for you.

I love this...both from a serious and a humorous perspective.
Thanks for the smile this one gave.
