LOVE LETTERS

Buenos noches mi querida
As the moon shines bright
The stars twinkling their starlight
I scamper all over the alphabet
Trying to upset
The letters from A to Zee
To come up with those
That will pierce your heart like a bayonet
And leave it bleeding in love
Letters that will take you far
Places rustic and virgin

Image adapted from


Letters that will leave your heart pounding
Like the ground below Xerxes army
Love letters that Paris Used on Helen of Troy
Letters so great that did wage the Trojan War
Letters that took the lives of Hector and Achilles
Letters that dwelt in Che Guevara's heart
And cemented his thirst for revolution and sacrifice
Ma Cherie
I am still looking for those LOVE LETTERS
