Love In Large Quantities

The girl I so adore,
I love her ten times more,
Add to that ten times ten,
Then Ten times more,
Now multiply this rich vein
Of tender endearment,
Ten times ten and ten times ten times ten more,
Double that and multiply by ten again,
You still would not approach the shore
Where love sprouts evermore,
Now for good measure, take the number
of all the grains of sand in the universe,
And add that to the mix, oh, to be sure,
Multiply again by ten times ten and ten times more,
But we're not done, because there isn't enough
numbers in all the stars, and all the atoms,
To even approach the infinity I have in mind.
That's the love of the evermore kind.
