Analysis of Flirtatious Love
Flirtatious Love
Found upon a new placid day begun
Was a bright new dawn for a rising sun,
Upon that day that our lives began -
She my sweet girl, and me, her man.
I shall spread my words for her love
On the feathered wings of a pure-white dove.
The passage of our love is cast upon a sea,
Where love's prison now has a hold on me.
Her lips do spill flirtatious rhymes
Of a love for this growing heart of mine,
Sharing her soul so my world can see,
As she has now proclaimed her love for me.
