Memories

My Valentine is so gentle and sweet,

She is Christianly in her demeanour,

She makes my loving life complete

With her apt respectable behaviour.

 

Clare is her name, she is so beautiful,

She sets my heart aflame with passion,

Igniting my palpitations – I am gullible

To her touching and sensitive sensation.

 

An intellectual, studied and learned,

Who has a morality of some standing,

And she wisely thinks using her head

And thus can be duly understanding.

 

She spoiled me with her nice, caring life,

Pampering I with many loving intentions,

I’m rescued now from trouble and strife,

And am honourable with many mentions.

 

I use chivalry as a tool, and offer out my hand

To openly express our affection for each-other,

And etiquette that is nicely expressed so grand

As I thought provoke my pretty, cherished lover.

 

We can be together for our eternity,

Sharing, being companions of leisure,

Treasuring life, an honourable testimony

Of our nice thoughtfulness endeavour.

 

You’re a pillar of great strength

Without any sad, hidden pretence,

And you’re an open book to read –

Of which I duly again have a need.
