Lad Poem by Nassy Fesharaki

Lad

Young was lad and had ways
-to get girl`s attention
-to inform that he was present:
-am here.

Then, in the older days
-boys and girls hardly met
-the she was a prey
-and the he, a hunter

Complex I call the relations
-though in times the preys
-looked back at the hunter
-sending signs

Hunter needs tools with ways
-bows, arrows, gun or sword
-with the knife and dagger
-most of all practice

For him all were in one
-a single matchstick

Not far back from her
-he walked and took steps
-sticking the stick in his nose
-to sneeze, so informed
-be aware, am here

This was too different
-from norm of whistle
-for the chicks! ! !

As a child who observed
-I could not ever tell
-if she liked or did not

But I thought of tactic
-in and out smiling!
-as do now
-to changes! ! !
