HAPPY VALENTINE’S DAY!
On Cupid’s Broken Wings
by Dawn Pisturino
On Cupid’s broken wings,
He landed at my door,
An instrument with broken strings,
No music at his core.
His arm wrapped up in dirty slings,
His leg — an oozing sore,
I welcomed him, and my heart sings
With love, and so much more!
With honeyed lips, I kissed him . . .
Please visit Spillwords to read the rest of the poem. Thank you!
[Note: I haven’t been posting much lately because I’ve been working on the final project for my university class. The class is almost over!]

(clearly my favorite part, that was just fun)
A golden lyre and a whim
To feel the lover’s dart
Deep in my chest. O cherubim! —
Aim true, and never part
