I'VE NAUGHT (A Valentine Triolet)

Silver or gold, I've naught
My garment drips with lovely drops


Think me not, your paper vault
Silver or gold. I've naught!


Pause not like other lot
Come closer and sip these drops
Silver or gold I've naught.
My garment- drips with lovely drops.

I WILL WIN YOUR HEART ( DOUBLE TRIOLET) Dedicated to Ayinla Leah Olayinka

I will win your heart,
With berries and flowers

Valentine comes in beautiful art
I will win your heart.

Let not our souls come apart
Make this season ours
I will- win your heart-
With berries and flowers.

With berries- and flowers
We will roll down the aisle

Hearts flipping with joy, sharing laughter
With berries and flowers

Be your nightingale lover,
Make you feel so fly
With berries, and flowers
We will roll down the aisle
