<h2> A VALENTINE </h2>
<p>Go, Cupid, and my sweetheart tell<br/>
I love her well.<br/>
Yes, though she tramples on my heart<br/>
And rends that bleeding thing apart;<br/>
And though she rolls a scornful eye<br/>
On doting me when I go by;<br/>
And though she scouts at everything<br/>
As tribute unto her I bring—<br/>
Apple, banana, caramel—<br/>
Haste, Cupid, to my love and tell,<br/>
In spite of all, I love her well!<br/>
And further say I have a sled<br/>
Cushioned in blue and painted red!<br/>
The groceryman has promised I<br/>
Can "hitch" whenever he goes by—<br/>
Go, tell her that, and, furthermore,<br/>
Apprise my sweetheart that a score<br/>
Of other little girls implore<br/>
The boon of riding on that sled<br/>
Painted and hitched, as aforesaid;—<br/>
And tell her, Cupid, only she<br/>
Shall ride upon that sled with me!<br/>
Tell her this all, and further tell<br/>
I love her well.<br/></p>
