The Boy Not Chosen (Imitation, with apologies to Robert Frost)
Location
Two boys torn between a girl and friendship,
And it’s too bad that she couldn’t choose both
And there’s one boy, tall and handsome
And looked like the man of her dreams
To what the girl could see from a distance.
Then the other, just as tall,
And having perhaps not such good looks,
Because his face resembled that of an English Bulldog;
Though there was a hint of cuteness there that
Had intrigued the girl just the tiniest bit.
And both these boys so eager for her attention
In any shape or form they could get it.
Oh, how she had them wrapped around her finger!
Yet she knew there could be some hurt feelings,
She doubted that either of them was truly worth her time.
She gave a hint of this with a single sigh
Somewhere deep down she knew one had potential:
Two boys torn between a girl and friendship, and she-
She chose the face of the English Bulldog
And that goes to show that looks aren’t everything.
