Wendy Cope's Valentine (#poem)


 


Valentine

My heart has made its mind up
And I'm afraid it's you.
Whatever you've got lined up
My heart has made its mind up
And if you can't be signed up
This year, next year will do.
My heart has made its mind up
And I'm afraid it's you.

-Wendy Cope

'Tis the season! I don't quite yet know where the elements in that picture are leading me, but somewhere, I guess...

The form of the poem is a triolet. I had more to say about that here.

Happy (upcoming) Valentine's Day to all. (And one Other Reader in particular!)
