Cupid Commemorations
Love, more than a once a year compliment
Remembered with other ember members at Valentine
When red reigns supreme to cement
Signals in Sentiment City all’s fine
Although a lover’s lilt longs for more
Than a red reference to dine and wine
Served with flourish in keeping with folklore
Kept alive over the centuries in a bid
To meld memories and joys galore
In minds married to a creed
With promises that raise expectations
But deliver little beneath a doctrine deed
Which longs for more than fancy felicitations
That once a year weave winds of creative commemorations.
