(to the tune of Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band)

Cherished Heart 

My paper heart, trimmed in fragile lace,
Longs for love notes scribed on its face -
In sonnet words “Won’t you be mine-
My cherished child - my valentine?”

If love is the answer,what is the question
My mind so eagerly wants to know
A lonely hearts club is a suggestion
From which  fond relationships can  grow.

Between which there...
