Oh how lovely

Dear, you are so lovely.

I just had to ask you, “Who did your hair?” Oh so lovely.

The sky is turning dark now, lovely.

The lamp on the table flickers low, oh just  lovely.

I am watching the shadows stretch long across the floor, lovely.

The wind is blowing a gale now, that’s just lovely.

Ahh, your hand found mine in the dark, lovely.

Oh look at how  bright the stars are shining in the dark sky, oh so lovely.

I don’t think I would change anything because it is lovely.
