I Can't Stay Mad At Cha Baby!

by Joyce Rogers



         It was on of those days
       When I had not had much rest.
   The burden of the day’s journey
     Had brought too much stress.

        Then you said one off word
           And I became unnerved
           You are my spouse and
              My best friend.
        Why were you acting as if
     You didn’t understand?

         Determined to let the sun
             Go down my anger
 I shouted, "Don't you even touch me
      With your stinking finger!"

  Then your eyes begin to caress my soul
        And I slowly became undone.
      The angels in heaven rejoiced
Because reconciliation had just begun.

       At the moment of my weakness
    You touched me with your sweetness.
  I can’t stay mad at cha baby!

       My anger was purged away when
        Your love touched my lips.
        I tried not to show it, but
      My heart was turning flips.

         Warm lips teasing my ear.
     Whispered words I began to hear.
        I knew I was surely undone
 When you said, "I’m sorry hon."

   As I partook of your honey and milk,
       The sweetness of your tongue,
      I knew then that anger had lost
    And the power of love had won.

  I can't stay mad at cha baby!
