Poem written for and submitted to "A Valentine With a Twist in the Tail” poetry contest, Suzette Richards, sponsor, January 17, 2026.
Cupid's arrow strikes at high noon, chocolates melt 'neath the bright moon. Our fate is sealed—a sweet typhoon, its winds carrying us afar. Our hearts danced through candle's warm glow, scars hid pain, which we did not know. Our souls cringed—a warning throe, And yet here we are.
