Love Potion

I have tried casting a spell on you I don't know what else a mere mortal can do... Love potion boil and bubble poison darts toil and trouble... Red laced apples caffeinated coffee non-caffeinated pinch of rosemary 9 oz sweet red wine 1 ginseng root... Goddess of love hear my plea let her fall in love and so desire me... My love philtre will enchant her it will pomp her my love potion... 9 red rose petals 3 almonds 9 clovers 9 drops of vanilla extract.. My true love her face I not yet see come my love so it shall be.. Eye of newt stew and brew 9 basil leaves count to seven all good children go to heaven.. The cow jumps over the moon... My love potion boil and bubble "poof!" takes away all my troubles! ~ ~ ~

This is a strong desire of love and surely you'll get the love you want. The universe can hear your roar loud and clear. Great pen.
