How To Express Love

Should I buy you a novel perfume? Woody and mysteriously macho Then choke on its lingering fumes Ceaselessly, my sneezes will echo Should I bake you a cake? Recipe? Sugar, flour, vanilla, raisins? My weary head starts to ache Pondering on the ledge of kitchen basin Should I exfoliate, prune and preen? In an attempt to turn back the clocks Brush and tease my hair to sheen But wont' fallen strands stick to your socks Guess, I won’t try anything special on Valentine Shrug it off and retire soon as the clock strikes nine Written on:01/30/2017
