"Valentino, Romance never dies"
Witness the hirsute main cat eloquently honey trapped,
the lap dance laps all the cream for what it's worth,
squeezes life out of the heart into the flipped mind
of Valentino, the bird chirps,
“romance never dies, in truth”
cats kissing caged canaries singing cabaret
Valentino, romance never dies,
not today, never not today, forsooth
(LadyLabyrinth / 2023)
“The soft wolf tread
Thru Emerald Forest
he was lookin' to make a bed
There in the spindly thicket
softly did he tread
The soft wolf tread”

Amami ora mentre
Posso ricambiare il tuo amore
Amami ora quando, a mio agio
Posso accendere e spegnere il fuoco della lanterna
Amami ora mentre, di nuovo
Posso espirare, inspirare e respirare facilmente
Amami ora mentre
Vedo chiaramente la tua bellezza
Non aspettare domani o un altro giorno
Quando non riesco più a vedere l'arcobaleno transitorio
Quando non posso più camminare da solo sul marciapiede
Quando non riesco a sentire la freschezza del mattino
Non amarmi solo a San Valentino
Ma anche quando devio erroneamente
Amami ora o mai più
In modo che io possa essere benedetto e fortunato senza fine
Non importa il mio stato d'animo o il mio umore
Non smettere di essere docile e gentile
Alla mia anima, al mio cuore
E al mio corpo, prima di salutarmi.

Ámame ahora mientras
Puedo amarte a cambio
Ámame ahora cuando, a voluntad
Puedo apagar el fuego de la linterna
Ámame ahora mientras, todavía
Puedo respirar fácilmente
Ámame ahora mientras
Puedo ver claramente tu belleza
No esperes a mañana u otro día
Cuando ya no puedo ver el arco iris transitorio
Cuando ya no puedo caminar solo en la acera
Y Cuando no puedo sentir la frescura del amanecer
Ámame no solo en el día de San Valentín
Pero también cuando me desvío por error
Ámame ahora o nunca
Para que pueda ser feliz para siempre, sin fin
Independientemente de mi estado de ánimo
No dejes de ser dulce y amable
A mi alma, a mi corazón
Y a mi cuerpo, antes de decir adiós, antes de partir.

I am holding roses, but not from yours,
Wishing this love note was written by you…
I guess this time is not meant for this lonesome heart,
But I’m still wishing, that your love will find its way back…
Knowing the world is round, where we stand,
It will still conspire us to be as one…
Love knows no boundaries, if it is true and are destined to be,
Keeping the faith, I know this will lead me the way…
Today it’s a valentine’s day,
I know we have the same thoughts, and feelings to express them away…
I wish you happiness, where you are now, and to whom you will be,
This time, I’ll just lend you to her, to take care of you
To keep you company while I’m still away…
Because, someday and soon… It will be me,
Whom you are going to hold, whom you are going to marry…
I love you… even I still don’t know you…
…. My future Valentino…
Temptation pulls us all into sin with gravity force
Wading in with human desires sweet sugar coating gloss
Strengths are nurtured and grown from our creator's breath of light
Filtering through densely chaotic thoughts stony cold walls
Snowdrops open their blossoms stretching a smile to your spring
Sprouting faith, hope, love and luck from a four-leaf white clover
Daffodils dance with a twirl around a twilight star breeze
Floating around magical melodies of twin flames spark
Shimmering dusk and dawn of your soul commanding presence
Soaring light chestnut brown kestrel swooping down in hunger
Low down in the horizon gracious mother of the rose
Sweet pleasant fragrance sets sail on the bitter winds of change
Queen of the evening sky you stand out a beautiful face
Radiating happiness amidst the flurries of rain
A co written piece by Liam Mc Daid and Angeline Lin
Considering the bitter cold of this wintry Sunday,
even those roses will freeze in less than two hours;
I'll do away with flowers, not forgetting a chocolate heart,
what will save Valentine's Day is something totally different!
Huddled like two cold bears, we watch the day slowly unfold;
there may be snow and gelid winds to frost our window,
but inside is so warm and passionate kisses are wild...
I will turn into handsome Valentino with that sensual glow!
We should be somewhere in California by a calm shore,
holding hands and exchanging words that poets adore;
and we can make believe that midnight is moments away,
oh, this thought of clever imagination vanishes in midday!
We can't be disheartened by the February's bizarre weather,
it's a disadvantage, but also a chance to explore new feelings...
we can set a date for a get-away-vacation to sunny Bel Air;
so with this in mind, let's smooch and roll in some warm sheets!
I found you in my desperate time of need when I had nothing I ever need you looked at me with those baby greens saying hold me you’re the one I truly need. You look at me and I see the happiness slowly come flooding back to me. As I sit here holding you I hear your plea love me, hold me take care of me. As I lay here thinking how could this be I have the perfect one that will never ever leave me. you play with my hair that’s getting a tangled mess you tickle me sending chills down my spine I laugh its coming back the one I thought I lost an seem to lack you’ll be the one to bring it back .
