I Have No Roses To Bring

I have no roses to bring, no cards nor candy or other pretty little things.

I only have my love for you on this special day; my love born on angels wings.

In the stores everywhere I see the hearts and flowers and the candy too.

Yet I have none of these, though they are very sweet…I just have my eternal love for you.

The flowers given, they so soon fade away; the candy gets eaten and the cards get put into a drawer for another day.

Yet my love is forever and my heart for you my sweets is pure and true .

Thus take these simple words, look into my eyes; hear my whispers in your ear and taste the love on my lips as the say I LOVE YOU.

Happy Valentines Day My Baby Jan…I love you.

Oh, Allen, your words reflect the sweet symbols of love truly given and received. Your words struck my heart, much like a cupids bow and I looked at my own true love with stars in my eyes. Lovingly beautiful.

Words from the heart
inspire and suffuse
with love like this
what is left to choose?

This little memoir
would inspire a Renoir...

Peace always,
