Don'T Touch My Chocolate Covered Nuts

Some think love and romance are sublime
Others feel they're a big waste of time
Both views maybe so
But there's one thing I know
Candy prices are surely a crime!

I'll buy her candies and flowers and charms
When we kiss I'll hear bells and alarms
But one thing can't compare
Is when I'm standing there
Silently holding her close in my arms!


For: Francine Roberts
Valentine's Day Limerick contest

Carolyn Devonshire Date: 1/24/2011 9:25:00 AM Oh yes, the title surely does grab the reader's attention. My naughty mind was filled with images, Kory. As far as I'm concerned, I'd rather have a hug such as you describe in your second verse, than all the chocolates, flowers and charms. Hugs always come from the heart. And you're right about the prices of candy, too, especially at movie theaters! Great entry for Francine's contest and I wish you success. Love, Carolyn Login to Reply
