Love...
By any other emotive word,
shall it not be uttered
to mean as much
as it does to lovers.
In a breathless sigh
it rises
The waves of love I speak of
they rush
to garnish the sands
with bubbles
of mirth.
O, bequeath the stars
that ride on Cupid's arrow
And trail the hearts of men
to desire.
And I
await my beloved
in a hushed silence.
Among the stars
Forty
A wish to enshrine
A Valentine
for the one I love
is fervent.
Happy Valentine's Day!
