I Love You

By Valerie D. Staton


I love you…
More than Elmer loves glue
More than Bruce loves Kung Fu
More than Sara loves pie
You’re the apple of my eye

More than Samson loves Delilah
More than smoke loves fire
More than Adam loves Eve
You're the only one I need

More than needle loves thread
More than Wilma loves Fred
More than peaches loves cream
More than I’d ever dare to dream

I love you...

I was nodding my head to all of these Valerie but stopped dead in my dendrites when I read "more than Wilma loves Fred". Surely NOT! Hahahahaha Thanks for the smile of the day. Well done my friend!
