Here's one for all you guys who forgot about Valentine's Day
Each year my happy clients
Kindly offer me the chance
To help them with their words of love
As they pursue romance
They tell me who they’re pining for
And then, I make some guesses
For, though I’ve never seen them
They are all my Beatresses
The custom poems I write
Can be sublime and atmospheric
But those of you who waited
Will be getting this generic…
Dearest love, I hardly know
The way to make a start
To tell you all the passion that
I’m holding in my heart
Your lips are jewels, your laughter light
Your smile, warm and rare
You set me soul on fire with….
(The color of your hair)
And though I’m not a scholar
When I’m with you I am wise
For I’ve learned the subtle wisdom in…
(The color of your eyes)
Poets say that love is blind
Which raises the alarm
I’ll never see another
As I’m blinded by your charm
But I don’t care if I can’t speak
Or smell or even see
For the only thing I know is
You’re the only one for me
So, offer me a hopeful nod
Perhaps a welcome glance
Telling me O! (NAME GOES HERE)
My hopes have half a chance.
