Valentine
Scarlet, crimson, red lips, red tops
Red roses, red ribbons paint the lovescape
Where lovers and admirers raise red hopes
On February fourteenth as to Valentine their red presents gape
In awe for red roses, red rhymes to reign supreme
For red tarts, red hearts
To nibble the red cream
Enabling Valentine actors and protectors to strut their amorous parts
In a red landscape driven by red love
In her scintillating red splendour
To lavish red love blessed from above
In a bid to displace the blue langour
Caught red-handed queering the pitch
Red love enjoys
For her crimson switch to beseech
Lovers to share to their hearts' content red toys
Meant to boost the red atmosphere
That catches the crimson imagination
Ensconced within the red sphere
Where lovers expressing their infatuation convey a red impression
With the crimson intention
To grant free reign
To the crimson mission
That gives pride of place to the red vein
Lovers
Arrest
On red covers
Where lovebirds attest
In full crimson glamour
On February fourteenth
With her full complement of red drama
For the red time umpteenth.
