Be My Valentine

No love could I write
without your name – 
my world the sum of
your letters. No word
desire I say nor hear,
if not spoken and the
return your echo – for
the air carries what is
impressed on the heart,
recited by both common
folk and sages – and moonlight 
has been a chronicle of snuggles
throughout affection's written ages – 

While my favorite title needs 
no other script, than Ila
across all pages –

A true jewel one can gift to one's beloved .... ! No superfluity of words to express passion's overflow ! But the tone of feelings conveyed is so intimate and ardent ! A lovely Valentine poem, Joe !
