Sugary Sappy Lovey Dovey Affection

Well if you can't tell by now that this is about romance, then um go buy roses for someone you love. and tell them how you feel (and i'm really thinking i should take my own advice) anyways this contest is strictly about poems. Love poems. I'm in the mood to read whatever love poems you have and they better be good cause i really want my heart to burst with love I want to be able to say awwwwwwww at the end of the poem. can you make me do that.

Not to many rules. no word limit, considering it will be poems entered.
I'm open to love being about gays and lesbians, so poems about that are welcomed.
[considering i am straight, i do want to see love poems about a man & woman courtship, but don't worry, straight poems will get equal judging to gay and lesbian poems]
try to keep erotica to a minimum, i don't feel like blushing lol (and lizzy hush!) but if you really think that erotica adds to your poem so profoundly, by all means enter it. but i better see erotica titled in your tags.
[last minute final rule] if your going to write a letter about how you feel, or in this case a poem, i want to know what you really love about this person.
not that your just writing them a love letter. capeesh?
and I just made it legal for you to enter more than one poem.

the only way you can get brownie points is if your poem is featured around an engagement. whether the couple is already engaged or someone is popping the question.

now go amaze me you lovebirds!

oh yeah and i forgot to mention, love blooming from fantasy creatures or even animals is fine too i'd love to see what you'd come up with
