Valentine Ballad
She said I see how tired your looking
As you try to finish your song
I’ll offer this, my love, if you’ll hear it
Twenty-eight days ain’t too long
As fair a point as you wish to make it
And, my love, you make them so well
I’d rather that instead of my weary
On the rhymes that I write you would dwell
You see the oil that my lamp is burning
Will last me just a few moments more
Nearly done this day’s final duty
Let me finish the song I implore
She said of course, my love, I will leave you
With your words, your work and your wine
Fortnight’s passed since we met February
Marks this feast of our St Valentine
