February Fever In the battle of the poets Closeted within their dens, Words their only ammunition Shooting from their ink filled pens, Seeking phrase uniquely pretty And an unused metaphor, They have not the time to help me Woo the one whom I adore. Without muse or bard asistance Am I equal to the game? In trite words of deep devotion Will the message be the same? I can't say it grandiosely As I beg you to be mine. The old hackneyed words must do then. "Will you be my Valentine?" By: Joyce 01/31/06 |

Joyce~ I absolutely ADORE this ... what a wonderful lead-off to the upcoming Sweetheart of a day~ I'll need to re-vive some of my purty little poetic Valentines~ I actually collect old Victorian Valentines ... and they are soooo romantic and beautiful~ *Huglets* ~*Marge*~ ~*The sound of a kiss is not as strong as that of a cannon, but it's echo endures much longer*~ |

I thoroughly enjoyed this Joyce, and also often wonder how to express one of the oldest feelings in the universe in a way that has not been done before. Thanks for sharing! The soul would have no rainbows, had the eyes no tears. |

It's not about beauty within words that wins hearts its the beauty within the person that brings a smile of knowing that you know them |
