Yes

Yes

by Mary Ann Hoberman

Yes

Yes

I like yes

I like it when I ask for things

And when you say yes

Yes

Yes

Let’s take a walk

Let’s bake a cake

Let’s sing a song

Yes

Yes

And yet sometimes

I don’t like yes

Like when you say

You’ve made a mess

Please clean it up

Or

Time for bed

Or

Time to go

And then I guess

That I like yes

A little less

Yes?

Yes
