Saturday Verse: Nikki Giovanni - "What It Is"

4-23-2017

WHAT IT IS 
if it's a trail we can hike it
if it has two wheels we can bike it 
if it's an allergy we can sneeze it
if it's a pimple we can squeeze it 
if it's dew it "covers Dixie"
if it's Tinker Bell it's a pixie 
if it's a breeze it can blow us
if it's the sun it can know us 
if it's a song we can sing it
if it flies we can wing it 
if it's soda pop then it's drinkable
it might be X-Rated but that's unthinkable 
if it's a boat we can sail it
if it's a letter we can mail it 
if it's a star we can let it shine
if it's the moon it can make you mine 
if it's grass we can rake it
if it's free why not take it 
if it's a tide it can ebb
if it's a spider it can web 
if it's chocolate we can dip it
if it's a golf ball we can chip it 
if it's gum we can chew it
I hope it's love so we can do it
