Walking over to you as I admire the view
Sitting on the patio overlooking orchards
Happy to pursue, you waved, and I knew
No more tortured birds at a loss for words
We hold hands while whispering notes of love
Ignoring Osso Buco in light of butterfly wings
My dove, there is nothing we cannot rise above
This heart sings, your inner beauty pulls the strings
With all these feelings for you, every day is Valentine
Smooth, classic jazz flies me to the moon in your eyes
Another glass of wine. Panna Cotta for dessert is fine
On our first date, you came as advertised. Me? Likewise
And as we accrue a lifetime of experiences built on trust
Reservations are for tables; everything can be discussed
