My sweet Bobbi Lee, would you marry me? We'll run away from here To a house made of bricks, and pink swizzle sticks And a door of cotton candy, so sheer My sweet Bobbi Lee, would you marry me? We'll dance the peppermint twist Pluck a handful of tulips, and sneak some mint juleps And wear candy necklaces on our wrists My sweet Bobbi Lee, would you marry me? A rainbow of Skittles awaits We'll suck lollypops and dine on gumdrops And eat the red licorice plates My sweet Bobbi Lee, would you marry me? And drink from the chocolately stream We'll frolic and play, in the Milky Way And sleep on clouds of whip cream My sweet Bobbi Lee, would you marry me? And fly over the lemony sun Our stomachs might ache, if we have too much cake But I promise it'll be worth the fun My sweet Bobbi Lee, would you marry me? And see the animal cracker zoo Caramel squares and brown teddy bears Are waitin' there just for you My sweet Bobbi Lee, would you marry me? If you let me be your fella From the strawberry skies and blueberry pies It'll make you a candy cane umbrella My sweet Bobbi Lee, would you marry me? And skip jelly beans from the dock We'll watch the sun dapple, on each candied apple And I'll make you a tootsie roll frock My sweet Bobbi Lee, would you marry me? And chase after chocolate bunnies We'll split a fudge sundae, on the porch every Monday Then from our fingers lick golden honeys My sweet Bobbi Lee, would you marry me? And climb over the ice cream slope Butterscotch swirls, and praline whirls And marshmallow minis, I hope My sweet Bobbi Lee, would you marry me? And dive into the milkshake pool I'll give you the ring, I took from the king But you'll still be the brightest jewel My sweet Bobbi Lee, would you marry me? If so, then please tell me when Its already noon, and I have to go soon But will you marry me, when we turn ten? [This message has been edited by Jess (06-08-2006 01:35 PM).] |

I finally edited this poem. The flow (or lack thereof) of this draft has always bothered me. /pip/Forum104/HTML/000154.html [This message has been edited by Jess (08-25-2007 09:44 PM).] |
