Cupid Pulls Back His Bow

Red and pink hearts, of every size
Swirl all around, some land in your eyes
The pulse starts to race, as temperatures rise
Love's in the air, and a swollen heart sighs

Flowers and chocolates, jewelry and wine
Cheek to cheek dancing, a restaurant to dine
You tell her how lucky, you were to find
Her beautiful heart, for your valentine

Thank you, Akkina. I could easily lie and say I was looking at your photo when I wrote it. Would that score me any extra points?
