Valentine

Love has such

A spring in its walk

And gentle ways

It can talk

The expression in its eye

Fleeting as it would shy

The dignity and poise

The sweet nothings

Whispered in its voice

From far and near

Making sure it got every ear

Flavour of a kind

Stroking the lips of time

One can spot it from a mile

Buried in an innocent smile

Its gentle rumbling sound

Longing forever to be around

Its skillful art

Flooding recesses of the heart

Yearning to impress

Rapt in the flare of its dress

A bouquet of roses

A bottle of wine

A little twist of fate

Covered with dark chocolate

With the mercy of the Gods

And a favour of few odds

It could all end up fine

For a perfect valentine
