A Valentine to Catherine
By Evaleen Stein
If you will be my True-Love,
I’ll tell you what I’ll do,
I’ll ask a little bluebird
To sing a song to you.
I’ll tell you what I’ll do,
I’ll ask a little bluebird
To sing a song to you.
When first you see a violet
And softly pricking through
The garden-bed come crocuses
And golden tulips, too,
The garden-bed come crocuses
And golden tulips, too,
Then watch! for he’ll be coming,
The little bird of blue;
He’ll sing, “I love you, Sweetheart,
It’s true, true, true!”
The little bird of blue;
He’ll sing, “I love you, Sweetheart,
It’s true, true, true!”
A Red, Red Rose

O my luve’s like a red, red rose.
That’s newly sprung in June;
O my luve’s like a melodie
That’s sweetly play’d in tune.
So deep in luve am I;
As fair art thou, my bonnie lass,
And I will love thee still, my Dear,
Till a’the seas gang dry.
Till a’ the seas gang dry, my Dear,
And the rocks melt wi’ the sun:
I will luve thee still, my Dear,
While the sands o’life shall run.
And fare thee weel my only Luve!
And fare thee weel a while!
And I will come again, my Luve,
Tho’ it were ten thousand mile!
It’s All I Have to Bring To-day

by Emily Dickinson
It’s all I have to bring to-day,
This, and my heart beside,
This, and my heart, and All the fields,
And all the meadows wide.
This, and my heart beside,
This, and my heart, and All the fields,
And all the meadows wide.
Be sure you count, should I forget, —
Someone the sum could tell, —
This, and my heart, and all the bees
Which in the clover dwell.
Someone the sum could tell, —
This, and my heart, and all the bees
Which in the clover dwell.
