Dripping With Love On Valentine's Day

Mr. Langford owned a candy store that was slow all year round. Except for Valentine's day when it was filled with spangled eyed lovers coming in for sweets and armloads of red roses in the shape of hearts. red as a cherry sweet as a berry it was Valerie, Mary or Cheri sherry on the ferry, roses from Gasperi One day the truck did not deliver the flowers on time. Poor soul sat forlorn to think and before he knew it, he fell asleep. Into his dreams a Cupid came, snapped his fingers 1 2 3 , heartsie flowers everywhere. Quick now don't you tarry there are lots of girls to marry Cupid worked his magic, light and airy While a watchful eye went up the room was infused with a beautiful scent Cupid old boy you did it again, now I can pay my rent... Lany old boy its a trick I deploy then he sang like a choirboy a Cherub Pillsbury Doughboy While the spangled eyed lovers came in once again. To buy sweets and an armload of roses, dripping with love and little heart shaped buds the whispered " I love you, do you love me too ?"

I know sweetie, I'd bring you flowers, but I'm too far, consider this a mental red rose, xo

Creative work you have penned. I enjoyed reading it. I have never gotten flowers for Valentine's Day. My husband planted me a Camellia one year which was supposed to take care of Christmas, Valentine's Day and my birthday. Sara

Mystic, I appreciate the thoughtfulness. He and the children planted me a row of red tip Photinia one year for Mother's Day. I enjoyed those for years, but they had to be removed because of a disease that hit them. I still enjoy the Camellia. It blooms from November until after Valentine's Day. So, reminders that he loves me. Sara

How sad, if I lived closer I'd bring you one single red rose to remind you how precious you are, and how loved, xo
