A dozen haiku poems under one title.... :)

________________________

Love thinks you're pretty

Without Maybelline powder

And pink lipstick on.

*

Love thinks you're pretty 

Without the braces and gems

Just being yourself.

*

Love thinks you're pretty 

In your messy morning face

And uncombed dark hair.

*

Love thinks you're pretty 

Whenever you smile and blush

At his mushy lines.

*

Love thinks you're pretty 

When you walk awkwardly shy,

Lost in your trances.

*

Love thinks you're pretty 

Even when you're out of tune...

Singing his fave song.

*

Love thinks you're pretty  

When you boast on your antics

And your childish pranks.

*

Love thinks you're pretty  

When your comeback sounds lousy

It puts you to shame.

*

Love thinks you're pretty  

When you are angry and mad,

Painstakingly sad.

*

Love thinks you're pretty  

Despite your mood swings and quirks...

And your stubbornness.

*

Love thinks you're pretty 

Even when you're annoying,

Almost every time.

*

You scrunch up your nose

When you- yourself -doubt it most...

Love thinks you're pretty.
