The Spirit of Love 

Some men send roses
 long-stemmed and red.
Some send chocolates
that melt in your mouth.
Some send cards,
heart-shaped and fancy.

But O, my Valentine,
my soul’s sweet delight.
You bend Cupid’s bow,
shoot arrows
of luminous light.

Riding the wind
you enter my window,
whisper your name to my ear,
warm my body,
quicken my pulse
And capture my heart!
