I bought some flowers
Lovely bright
With hue and tint
Blended right
Gave a penny
To vendor old
But I knew not where love was sold?
I bought some chocolates
Sweetie delight
Soaked in honey
Feast for sight
Wrapped in silver
And foils of gold
But I knew not where love was sold?
I bought an outfit
Silky white
With pearly beads
Hemmed tight
The perfect fit
Each pleat and fold
But I knew not where love was sold?
I bought a card
With a love quote
Just as I thought
Someone had wrote
On a red heart
In letters bold
But I knew not where love was sold?
I bought a dinner
‘Candle light'
Sparked talk
On winter night
Bodies warm
Heart but cold
But I knew not where love was sold?
