How do I Convey to Thee?

One person said to convey

love with flowers.

Another, with candy, such as chocolates.

My father said attention

and my mother said I didn't need to do it.


But I do.


How else would

she come to know

I loved her

and always will?


My brother gave me

a violin.

I used to be good at it.


When I played for her

I screeched and scratched

and sounded anything but lovely.

But she laughed

and kissed me

and told me that the pictures we're collecting

of us together will always show her that we love each other,

but a song once in a while wouldn't be too bad.
