Poetry - Be Mine

Be Mine

A shooting star slid across the sky…
Oh, so bright and full of fire.

It touched my heart and I wondered why…
Oh, how I want to only believe and love.

But, that shall never happen to me…
Always disappointed, and hurt again.

But, something strange happened to me…
An angel appeared and stood by me.

She saw me and asked one simple question…
“Will you Be Mine and Love Me True ?”

I took not a moment to delay…
Seeing her eyes sparkle, I answered.

Oh, my, “Yes! Yes!”, my dear love…
I’ve always wanted a Love Flower.

You are wild and a bit of a handful…
But, under it all, you are just me.

So babe, your LoveBug knows it…
I am here to be your true love.

I put my hand out to you…
You place it on your heart, and yes!

It finally happened, a Love So True…
I am Yours, and I will love you Forever.

A special sonnet written for Nicole Lynn for
Valentine’s Day to tell her how much I Love Her.
