Asking Her Out
I asked.
She said No.
Talked to her on Facebook,
She said No.
Shook hands with her buddies,
Befriended her mamma,
But from her it was still a No.
She grumbled,
And said No.
She thanked me for the bouquet,
But still said No.
Called her day and night
Mailed her every fortnight,
But from her it was still a big No.
Then she writes back to apologize,
But it is still a No!
Ah well, I should have gotten the message,
That was loud and clear,
When Michelle had said No!
