'I'M Saving The Best For Last' Poem by Linda Winchell

I've heard it said to eat desert first, because life is so uncertain!
But I'm going to be saving the best for last!
Why start off with your favorite whatevers?
Because when your done that taste will have past!

Like that great big piece, of mom's chocolate cake!
Or that special email from a dear friend!
Why eat them first or read them?
It will be all over, and then it ends!

My best friends don't read my emails
the first thing out of their box!
They tell me they're saving, ' the best of whatever I've sent'
And reading the others first off, that they've got!

It makes me feel all warm and fuzzy!
That someone would think, that much of me!
So if I don't get back with you real soon
I'm just saving the best of YOU last, for ME!
