My Valentine - behold how I long

A tribute to the pangs of love across distance

I have a wish to be wrapped
in your arms this day..
to feel the warmth of the Sun,
to be colored with rainbow hues,
to adorn my locks with roses
and a garland of orchids too.

I want to fly my wings across time..
like a pigeon, a butterfly, a cuckoo.
I fancy a brook to flow by
and sail me miles to reach you.

I imagine your glimpse, so very true
that would blush me shades of pink.
I yearn for your touch my dear
to melt me into you.

I want the puff of your breath
suffused with all its whiff,
to brush my passionate longing
all over your spirit.
