Courtship

Cupid sharpens his weapon Firms up his grip An arrow pierces two hearts ~ Man embarks on courtship As for success Cupid cares not His, to light the fire Theirs to tend 'til it's out

He fires up the arrow then walks away. Like Sara says, Cupid takes no responsibility…lol

'An arrow pierces two hearts' - funny I never thought of it like that - cupid's a double dealer :)

If Cupid had longer arrows, he'd pierce 3 hearts! ~ Just sayin'

Ahh!! So Cupid isn't going to take the blame for thing going wrong. Good to be far away from that scene anyway. Thanks for sharing and for dropping by my page. Sara

Yeah, that 'scene' seems so silly now, doesn't it? ( But it's real to the participants!) ... And I sure enjoy your page, Sara!
