A Love Potion

A sprinkle of humour
A dash of wit
A twinkling eye
Many a soft word
A barely audible sigh
A tender touch
Let lips the other's cheek lightly brush
A glass or two of wine
Fine food
A candlelit room

With such ingredients
The wonder of love
Will come to the fore
So be careful your love potion to pour.
Those elements will never fail
Keep them as your holy grail
