cupid's ring


Anna to David spoke
No way to give her pleasure
She knew his love for her was true
And that she would so treasure

I know your love for me is true
My love is for another
The only love I have for you
Is of sister and of brother

David’s heart so racked with pain
Beyond all understanding
He would change his way today
Be colder and commanding

The life and soul of the party
With wit charm and graces
When alone poetry he writes
Speeding up in places

Heather could see David’s pain
His tender heart so clear
She read his poems every one
And gently shed a tear

David knew of Heather’s love
The meeting was depressing
All the virtues she could bring
Her love was so oppressing

I know your love for me is true
My love is for another
The only love I have for you
Is of sister and of brother

Heather the critic of poetry
Showed no artistic flare
Would sit with artist every day
Cool them with her glare

John could see the inner child
Heather soft and gentle
Trying to stay in the flow
Her actions drove him mental

He told her of his deepest love
To offer her protection
She did not want a gallant man
So offered her rejection

I know your love for me is true
My love is for another
The only love I have for you
Is of sister and of brother

John gallant captain of horse
His medals he would hide
Would be a caring modern man
No arrogance or pride

Anna saw the inner John
So handsome and so dashing
Life and soul of parties
To be with was so smashing

She tried to tell him of her love
Acting sweet and meekly
He knew what she was going through
And answered her discreetly

I know your love for me is true
My love is for another
The only love I have for you
Is of sister and of brother

So cupid has a completed ring
The wicked god we shiver
Many more will fall this way
From loves evil quiver
