People We Like
People we like are likely to be a lot alike:
perhaps they think alike.
People we like are likely to do the things we like:
perhaps fishing for pike.
People we like are likely to hold values alike:
perhaps they vote alike.
People we like are likely to see us as they like:
perhaps a semblance strike.
People we like are likely to entertain alike:
perhaps they dance alike.
People we like are likely to be with those we like:
perhaps in tandem hike.
People we like are likely to have habits alike:
perhaps they eat alike.
People we like are likely to share interests we like:
perhaps a speaker's mike.
People we like are likely to even look alike:
perhaps they dress alike.
