Did You Like It? Poem by Andy Brookes

Well did you like it? he asked
do you want accolades, bouquets, curtain calls.

well did you like it? he asked
what should I sing the blues
or shout hallelujahs with a gospel choir


Well did you like it? he asked
should I climb a mountain and proclaim from hill tops like a prophet of old, write a sonnet or compose a song

well did you like it? he asked
should I set off fire works somersaults across Times Square
proclaim in lights on Broadway, headline a show,

Well did you like it? he asked
want me to walk up and down with a placard extolling its virtues
or tap dance my answer in Morse

did I like it? well yes I guess I did.
