They sit on a wooden paper bench,
Framed in a brocade
Of paper flowers,
Her hands fold on her lap,
The hem of her white paper dress
And a glimpse of petticoat beneath
Drift flirtingly in the breeze,
Her eyes turn demurely away,
As he holds out to her,
In his proper paper suit
And high collar,
Doffed hat pressed against his breast,
A single paper rose.
Would You, Be Mine?
The words float above them,
Like a cloud, while Cupid,
In a corner with a bent paper wing,
Smiles over them.
Beneath them, in another corner,
In smudged, faded pencil,
The words written,
Love, Marvin.
A century later
Marvin still loves her.
Flowers and love last forever
On old valentines.
Would you, be mine?
