A Long Love Poem
I like you girl;
better'n chicken,
better'n liking myself I reckon
more than any other thing alive;
more than life passing,
or the promise of time

ah Moonman!
Loved the brevity of the piece and the bathos of the title!
A simple expression from a complex man - as is reflected in the last three lines!! Cowboys don't cry, they just tell it like it is! ;)
cheers

Best love poem I've read in a long time.
Just a strange glitch happening.
On my screen
I like you girl
reads as
I like you girt
very weird, if it happens on other things you might want to check for code in your post. Remember always post from a .txt file is best or maybe you put in ; instad of a comma. Makes a big difference.[chuckles]
