My First Valentine

 

My love songs won’t be in perfect meter or rhyme
or even make much sense from time to time
but they will be honest and be true
as only love songs can be
from me to you.

I am a peculiar man who has been gifted
sometimes not when I have drifted
but always grateful to have found my way to you.

Rose petals on the floor
await for you behind a door
within a home made whole
for all to see
in all the love you give
from you to me.

So kiss me once and maybe twice
the sweetness lingers
a special spice
has found its way to us
unlike any I have known before.
