Sweet Valentines Series

My first sweetheart soul was extremely sweet The sweet fact, she was sweet enough to eat An agape valentine (a·ga·pe [aa g? pay] 3 syllables) My beautiful Clementine My fault, marriage not given time to seat! My next sweetheart from the very first start Almost evident that we would soon part Creature from black lagoon Must get rid of her soon This sweet’s nagging, truly her state of art! Most valentines are sweet enough to eat Giving a marriage time enough to seat You wish you had of eaten It would save from repeat-en Romance is treat, alas she warms you feet! For contest: Valentine Day Limerick For and in honor of Francine Roberts

Marriage does need some time "to seat," John. Agape love grows more intense over a period of time, but infatuation fades soon when you're tied to a "creature from black lagoon." Very witty limerick series that also has a meaningful message. Wishing you success in this contest, John. I'll be posting my entry now too. Francine gave us some great inspiration! Love, Carolyn
