For My Valentine

You are my lover I am enamored with you I have so much joy Brought by your sweet tender hand My love, you’re greater than Earth You hold my heart true All smiles are warm thoughts of you You are my one love My valentine, you’re for me You are everything to me Russell Sivey Entrant into frank herrera's "My Valentine Poem to You." contest 1/18/2012

russell, I really had to think what you meant "running out of steam" but finally it came to me that I forgot the last line is seven syllables instead of five. Gosh, next time just tell me. hahaha. It took me forever to think of how to reword it, but NOW it's been rescued!!
