Aphrodite the Goddess of Love and Room 13

When Aphrodite looked from above,
She dispensed another wave of love
She sits aloft or so they say
And cast her wand over Kefalonia bay
A couple travelled to revive their love
He pleaded to the goddess above
My mind is willing my body weak
My thoughts on love a little bleak
My queen I love with all my heart
I want to give that special part
The trouble is on this year 53 
Says she’d prefer a cup of tea
Please, Aphrodite cast your spell
On the queen of my heart, I love so well
Upon his knees, Aphrodite had seen
And booked them into room 13
Thirteen they said unlucky for some
But in room thirteen the deed was done
Their love renewed their hearts full they say
As they book again for Kefalonia bay
Memories made sweet we from them glean
As love they made in room thirteen

Mandy: That is so sweet and funny. The rhyming really lends to the story being told. We live in No. 13 on our street and lucky thing I am not overly superstitious. Cheers, SuZ
