My Friend Cupid

Sometimes young kids like to rebel, just a little.
Like at the scheduled bath time, especially boys.
You guys want some hot chocolate. Ok. I�ll fix it.
What? Why are you asking about Cupid? Oh.
Tomorrow is Valentines day. Here�s your chocolate.
Now let me see. Cupid, huh. Well let me check.
Opening a draw I pulled out a folded up piece
of paper. Drink your chocolate while I read this.
This is a letter that I wrote sometime back.
I was told to write it by.......My Friend Cupid

Look out!
With quiver on back
and bow in hand
A mighty winged cherub
does scour the land.

He�s looking for soul mates,
pairing their hearts
Encompassing closure
with arrow length darts.

This message you hear
I�ve been instructed to write
with Cupid beside me
to warn of his flight.

His arrows are dipped
in love potent stew.
Next, picking out lovers
and one might be you.

So many people
looking for love.
The match making archer
from skyward above.

How high, you might think
does Cupid go?
His Cherub wings flapping
on gray clouds of snow.

His eyes they do see
just small aching hearts,
of far distant loves
from lands of all parts.

When spotting a pair
while on lovers patrol
twin potioned dipped arrows
are aimed at two souls.

Exactly in time
those arrows do speed
Reaching there target
completing the deed.

Surely a smile
encases the heart
directing a soul mate
completing two parts.

When hit by an arrow
you�ll hear but one ding
From that moment on
your heart wants to sing.

Now Cupid has told me
should you need a mate
if you wear a blue shirt
he�ll speed up your fate.

'Tis all he is telling
at this current time.
True love is awaiting
you in perfect chime.

Hey guys. Why ya taking off your nice blue shirts? Did
you spill chocolate on them? Oh well. Your Mom has
your bath ready. To the tub they went. Wonder what
changed their minds?
