A Valentine
I may be nearly sixty
And I've had a drink or two,
But in my lonely moments
I often think of you.
You seem so very gentle
And I don't know what to do,
I'm feeling sentimental
But are my instincts true?
Would you like to have a go
At being more than friends?
Please don't answer with a 'no'
Or even 'it depends'! !
I always try to do my best
And my question is sincere,
Tell me, do I pass the test
And will you call me 'Dear'?
