BLOG CHALLENGE: Dear Cupid

I don't need no fancy things.
No necklaces, no diamond rings.

Don't need Whitman's Chocolate Sampler.
(My butt don't need to be more ampler!)

No fancy fondue dinner out;
That's not what Valentine's about.

No, Cupid, all the hype and such,
It really don't excite me much.

It's the little things! And I ain't lyin'.
Take lessons from this boy named Brian:

(He's Dani's boyfriend. Super sweet.)
He surprised her with a breakfast treat

On Saturday, by stopping by
and deliv'ring to his sweetie pie

A bag of donuts. Chocolate glaze.
Dani gave him a loving gaze

While I said, "Hey! You're not the bomb.
Did you forget about the MOM?"

His quick reply: "You're on a diet."
That kid is really quite a riot.

But anyway. The deal is this:
Surprises equal spousal bliss.

So Cupid, tell my sweetie dear.
Whisper this into his ear:

The little things will melt my heart.
A hand-signed card is a good start.

Or a letter that comfirms for me
He'll love me for eternity.

But if he wants to spend some dough
Here's a little something he should know:

There's a sale. At Macy's, see.
By one and you get one FREE!

I'd like a mix of Tangerine,
Scarlet, Peacock, Shamrock Green,

And round it out with Sunflower, pet.
Has Darren won the lotto yet?

A little thing that makes love last,
Borrow her car and fill the gas.
