2.
As I amuse myself
At my lack of prospect
There was a ringing in my ear
Alerted by this assumption
Of unintended interrupt
I asked patience of my sibling
And to the door I swayed
My heart beating fiercely
In my chest
For fear that I might be correct

3.
Opening my garden gates
I saw a stranger standing
He asked my name
With sweet compose
I rattled that which
Claimed my person
Told he me I had a gift
Flowers!
The word brought a certain
Bliss to my heart

4.
Gladly did I receive this
Sweet smelling gift
Fingers pounced upon the claim
Eyes seeking to find the name
Mom, it read to my surprise
Revealed within my rounded eyes
But oh the joy did still exist
As I brushed the roses to my lips

5.
Then carnations and more
I know not the names
But, Mother I thank you
Just the same
Lessons are often taught in love
By many we encounter
This lesson I shall ne'er forget
When Valentines returns next year
I'll remember love is more
Than sweethearts
