My Valentine Gift

Bright gold angel pin Garnished by brilliant gemstones The gleam burned his eyes His wallet took a wallop Gratitude shown with passion

I love the passionate man buying his significant other a "bright gold angel pin..."! It just happens that this jewel encrusted piece also costs a lot of money, so sweet the man is! This ought to do very well in Andrea's contest! Excellent Work!!

Nice one Carolyn. "Bright gold angel pin" - a "wallet wallop"; "Gratitude shown with passion" - priceless. ;-) Happy Valentines Day - Will you be mine? (No gemstones involved.)
