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!
