Valentine's Day 2016

i love you quicker than a minute

i love you longer than an hour

i love you like the honeybee

loves buzzing round a flower

i love you stronger than the wind

i love you softer than a cloud

i love when you are quiet

i love when you are loud

i love you closer than your shadow

i love you further than the sun

i love you, too, when raindrops fall

one by one by one

i love you round and round the world

i love you through and through

and when it seems impossible

to love you more

i do.
