My Lady - My Valentine
I loveth thine hair, and thine skin so fair. I loveth thine eyes, which tell no lies. I loveth thine nose, with it's shining tip, and most of all, I loveth thine lips, for love is spoken there.
I loveth the wind, which rustles thine hair, and kisses thine lips. I loveth the sun, which peeks from clouds, giving thee warmth, and lighting thine day. I loveth the trees, that line the walk, and whisper, you've passed their way.
I loveth thine person, from head to foot, I loveth thine ways, thine gaze, and all at which thee look.
That I might touch that which thee have, that I might hold that, which thee love, that thy might see me, in thine sleep, that thy might love me, just a week.
Oh lovely one, of infinite grace, can'st I gaze upon thy face, without the fear of sharp respite, as I confess my love, each day, and night.
Ah, my lady - 'tis my heart, this Valentine, enabling these words of mine -
Be mine, Please be mine,
mine Valentine

Ahhh . . . You really poured it on with this one, and I am not saying that except to say I loved this Valentine's Day poem.
quote: Be mine, Please be mine,
mine Valentine
I loved the ending . . .~ If they give you ruled paper, write sideways. ~

This is the kind of Valentine I like, hand written, up close-personal-one of a kind. Real-not like the Hallmark um poop.
Thanks for posting it J"Poetry is an echo, asking a shadow to dance." Carl Sandburg
