Happy Valentine's Day

From a Secret Admirer

(After Robert Frost's "Stopping by Woods on a Snowy Evening")

Whose gift this is you cannot know.

My heart is in your keeping though.

You will not mind my writing here

To tell you that I love you so.
I know that you must think it queer

or me to love and not come near

But linger by some frozen lake

This most romantic time of year.
I sometimes give my head a shake

And ask if there is some mistake.

It's lonely out here 'mid the sweep

Of bitter wind and icy flake.
My love for you is dark and deep,

But it's a promise I will keep As from afar I watch and weep,

As from afar I watch and weep.

xoxo Angie.
