Leap Year
An Extra Day to Love!

Now, I have a Leap Year
A little longer, February
But, without my love for you
I wouldn’t, have, nary!

Three hundred, sixty-five
Is never near, enough days
To show how I love you
And, never near, enough ways.

I can say all the words
There are, for love, to say
How much, you mean to me
As I’m searching, for a way.

To make you believe them all
(Sometimes, they may seem, hollow)
But, the path to your heart
Is, the only one I can follow.

A leap of faith, in leap year
Is, all that keeps me going
And there’s no way to stop love
That, just keeps on a’flowing.

Day by day, week by week
As they slip, so quickly by
Just another year gone, past
As my mind, asks my heart. “Why?”
