Acrostic, Acrostic Poem by Denis Martindale

Am I in love with Annika?
Can I confess it's true?
Rely on roses I'd pick her,
Or chocolates boxed and new?
Speak winsome words that I'd rehearsed
Till each word sounded right?
In hopes that I'd be reimbursed
Come the stroke of midnight! ?

Am I in love? I am indeed!
Could I be more than this?
Rejoicing if I should succeed,
Obtaining future bliss...
So, pray for me! That I might win
The love of one so fair,
In time, our marriage to begin,
'Cos Heaven's there, right there...
