Hearts and Souls Entwine
As dusk adopts a scarlet hue,
cerise ribbons package the night.
And an owl bids daylight adieu,
silhouetted by the last light.
Our hearts hitch a ride to the moon,
on the wings of a turtledove.
And shining like a gold doubloon,
Luna smiles down upon our love.
Our spirits rise above the Earth,
untethered from their mortal perch.
And we learn love's actual worth
lies in the finding, not the search.
We kiss below a blushing Mars,
letting our hearts and souls entwine.
And as the moon outshines the stars,
golden beams crown my Valentine.
