Tomboy Desires Girly dresses are not what I desire Hair in place, loving with fire Has a place that even I can't deny But, there's more I see with longing eyes Oh, how I long for an arrow and a bow Or a slingshot to take where I may go Maybe a knife to carve whistles and little toys Think of the smiles on clamoring girls and boys! I long to run in the woods so far away Instead girly dress up games I must play I can smell the ocean hit a far away shore I have heard many stories and sailor's lore Waves pounding and smashing against wooden boats Plummeting them until they will no longer float Landing on beaches on distant sands I want to see other far-away lands! I want to hunt with well-tested skill Bringing home wild boar that I did kill. I want to live with a passionate fire After I have filled my tomboy desires. aziza |
