Sweet Red

Oh my sweet sweet friend,

At times your bitter side shows.

Though, even still,

I believe you're with me til the end.

My perfection and righteousness,

Related to the rose.

The elves passion are with you my friend,

For when doubled and shared,

You will soon bring love,

And desire will follow.

Author's Note

Based off of facts about Strawberries.
-In France, Strawberries were thought to be an aphrodisiac. A soup made of strawberries, thinned sour cream, borage, & powered sugar was served to newlyweds.
-Folk lore states that if you split a double strawberry in half and share it with the opposite sex, you’ll soon fall in love.
-Strawberries are a member of the rose family.
-To symbolize perfection and righteousness, medieval stone masons carved strawberry designs on altars and around the tops of pillars in churches and cathedrals.
-In parts of Bavaria, country folk still practice the annual rite each spring of tying small baskets of wild strawberries to the horns of their cattle as an offering to elves. They believe that the elves, are passionately fond of strawberries, will help to produce healthy calves and an abundance of milk in return.

I love the way you bounce around in this piece without detracting from the flow. I love how this feels like a love poem you've written for "Geoff" but at the same time it's something different and completely honest. I love the voice you developed within this piece, it really adds to your personality here on the same side of the screen. I love your creativity. GREAT PIECE!
