1972 Poetry by Michael F. Nyiri

---

Oh, How Sweet

He wrote her a verse
He typed it all neat
He gave it to her and she said,
		"Oh, how sweet,
		Oh, how sweet."

He asked for a date
Her fancy to greet
As he gave her the flowers she said,
		"Oh, how sweet,
		Oh, how sweet."

He kissed her three times
Right in his back seat
And as he terminated each one she replied,
		"Oh, how sweet,
		Oh, how sweet,
		Oh, how sweet."

On his fourth date at dinner
Before cutting the meat
He said he liked her and she said,
		"Oh, how sweet,
		Oh, how sweet."

I know that this sounds pretty funny
But each time he gave her a treat
She gave a big smile and she patted his head
		And she said,
		"Oh, how sweet,
		Oh, how sweet."

He loved her, the fool
Never knew he was beat
But at last found the answer
When he said that he loved her
To which she replied,
		"Oh, how sweet,
		Oh, how sweet."
