My forever poem: "A Simple Declaration"

 

My forever poem for Penny Lynn,

on the occasion of her birthday

A Simple Declaration

 

Words are not enough

to express all my love for you;

and if they are, I don’t have them

to say what you mean to me. Of

course, there are always roses.

Yellow are my favorite, but red

say love much better. And there

are birthday cards with just the

right verse, if you can find it.

But best of all, with no cost but

my whole heart and soul, is a hug,

a kiss, and a simple declaration:

I love you, Penny Lynn.
