Analysis of If a landing was like snow
Leonid Rozumenko 1961 (Kyiv)
If a landing was like snow, -
Don’t ever rush to walk.
If a woman tells you “no” -
It means she wants to talk.
A gentleman will always
Let a woman go-ahead
It’s one of many ways
Enjoy with her behind.
Sometimes the girl could ask:
Why starring you at me?
And answer simple tasks –
It wasn’t a piece of me.
The answer is only one,
You shouldn’t expect another.
It was my future son,
That’s looking for his mother.
