Devotive Dividend Declared

A certificate of deposit love's purchase to prepare Penning love's earnest with liberal flare Inscribing title and documenting deed no meager fare Tapping into literary vault of esteemed relics your assets to pare Initiating votive contract no trite chare For with your appreciating qualities can none compare Each cuddly rhyme; each sentimental stare Bonds my pen; binds our charming affair Each bartered simile your value lays bare Every metonymic expression love's affadavit will swear Each titilating allusion; a lien your affections to ensnare Each pawned metaphor our liabilities will pair Every allegorical kiss my life's lease will square Every affable alliteration increases your stock a share My hyperbolic soliloquy your dividend will declare My epilogue tendered, 'my devotion exchanged for your care'
