My Fortune

Fortune tellers come and go Palms are read to say it’s so But I don’t need some cards to know my life I’ll love you till the day I die And then forever dear, will I Watch over you through joy and pain and strife Fortune hunters spend their time Seeking gold for life sublime But I know that my fortune lives in you For sharing secrets side by side While taking this world for a ride Is wonder worthy of what king’s can do My fortune has the name of June She sings the chorus of this tune I know for all eternity She’ll be the only one for me 1/25/19 Midnight Valentine Poetry Contest Chantelle Anne Cooke

This is such a beautiful 'homemade' valentine to your one and only. And I'm somehow sure that she deserves every accolade that you've given her. What a wonderful couple you must be... Ah, true love! A FAVE, Mike. ~ Gershon
