Cupid's Tattoo

Cupid dipped an arrow
In the blue sky above
Took green from the forest
Mixed in a lot of love.

The pure white of the clouds
The brightness of the sun
All the colors of the rainbow
Were used 'fore he was done.

He's the greatest artist
The world has ever known
It's art that can't be seen
But always can be shown.

There are paintings of dreams
That, someday will come true
Some indelible scenes
Of those days I spent with you.

It didn't hurt at all
When the lines were etched there
They were put on to stay
To show I’ll always care.

Although you can't see it
It's always spelled the same
That writing on my heart
Spells out your lovely name.

There are tattoos upon my heart
That show love in all its' glory
But they only tell a small part
Of a long and happy story.

I, too, love this poem. Your heart's tattoo shows to all who care to take the time to see it.
