Oldest and Best Valentine
OLDEST AND BEST VALENTINE
oh dear, me-oh-my
valentine’s day, all the rage
the headlines – front page
two weeks away, but big news
and here i sit – lost my muse
oh what can i do?
i must invent clever words
sweetest ever heard
searching, everything to lose
and here i sit – lost my muse
this desperate thought
world’s biggest box of candy
a handy dandy
as last resort let’s try it
but no! she’s on a diet
i must give up
cannot even make a start
save her broken heart
just three words will have to do
i’ll kiss and whisper, i love you
