The Modern Valentine


This child had a Valentine,
This strange ungracious thing.
It really pleased her little heart,
and made her voice sing.
She had a stream of boyfriends,
most of them she strung along.
When one of them got serious,
she said to him be gone.
Her Valentines card were many,
the best in the land.
They must have cost a tidy penny,
but she didn't care a dam.
This pleased her little heart,
and made her voice sing.
To her these boys,were just her toys,
A new discovered thing.
Then one day, A Valentines Day,
the game was up and over.
This did not please her little heart,
she was seduced by the Gypsy Rover.
He promised her the world,
and all his worthy goods.
Then when she went to marry him,
He vanished from the woods.
This child had a Valentine,
a beautiful bouncing boy.
He really pleased her little heart,
and she sang a song of joy.
No more was she a child,
This strange ungracious thing.
Who now brings up a child,
without a wedding ring.
