Pigtails and Spit Wads

"How do I love thee, let me count the ways" A poet of old was known to have written So how many ways can we say I love you When our hearts have truly been smitten Yes box, No box or Maybe box Has been known to give us a voice Passed back and forth with high expectations 'Til the reader has check marked a choice Pigtails and spit wads can say I love you As chewed up paper flies through the air Or maybe a tug on those beautiful pigtails Will show them that you really care Sharing your snack is very romantic Or their initials enclosed in a heart And of course, "Will you be my valentine?" Is always a good place to start The ways that we say I love you Are really too many to list But you'll know when it's right and love is in sight When two lovers have finally kissed
