To You, Lovey Poem by Emmanuel Karibi Obuala

To You, Lovey

Rating: 5.0


would you let me write you
a serenade, lovey?
a sensational heartsong
about the mushy things
a man wants to tell
from the bosom of his heart

i've got bouquets of butterflies
fluttering in my stomach,
i ought to set free...
but how can i,
when there are seemingly
no roses for them to perch on?
