“Girls should be modest”
they say,
Stiff on St. Valentine’s Day.
I suppose a young maid may
Offer a tiny bouquet,
and not wander far astray
From perfection.
Only a leaf and a pink!
Surely at that one may wink,
I am still save on the brink,
Since I have not said, I think,
“That you are yourself the pink
“Of perfection”.
