Nature’s heart may not
bleed red; but it cries out loud
Listen; Care better.
Look and you can see
Nature is love.
Fire and sugar
Red colors them both, you see
Chilies, strawberries.

A Valentine For Each Other
Now she made a Valentine for him,
In red and white with memories within
Enclosed a photo of their first shared kiss
When they discovered love’s bliss.
There she was on the open court
Bathed, illuminated in a plume of light
Was love at first sight for him then;
Now she made a Valentine for him.
Terms of endearment never exchanged
He gave her a bottle of her favorite perfume
Still had it, though all dried out
In red and white with memories within.
A box, a card, “remember that incident
– zoom! whack! your ball; my face, I knew then”
Inside a threaded coral necklace (35 dear);
Enclosed a photo of their first shared kiss!
She recalled when she was
on the open court – A rare occurrence
for her; Was it
coincidence? Fate?
coincidence? Fate?
When they discovered love’s bliss.
I fell in love with a girl on the tennis court but it was not to be. Glad it lasted for them though despite the slight accident. The court is a good place to court.
I love romantic poems…
Puts me right in the mood for Valentine's 🙂
Great romance today. 'Tis in the air.
I really like how you have blended these prompts. I especially like the use of a cascade poem for a valentine.
Tenderly warm and loving. Nice…
A court is a good place to start! Common passion for the game can lead to more dramatic happenings! Nicely Lady!
