My love knows no Louis Vuitton or Cartier she doesn't belong to the city she lives in a farm with her parents and siblings in the faraway country.
My love thinks not of manicures her hands are busy in the soil the flowers and plants relish their tender touch from dawn to dusk she does toil
My love didn't go to uni but she knows Keats, Byron and Shelley even French, German and Russian poetry lots of Sartre and Camus--she takes delight in philosophy.
My love is no Maria Callas nor Joan Sutherland but beautifully she sings Schubert's lieder opera and folk songs she takes delight in like none other
My love never had music lessons how she excels on the piano she plays Mozart, Beethoven and Bach by ear at the music-hall the villagers love her as she plays solo
I am the son of old John Mac Gregor her next-door neighbour I went to school never too shy to date her
Dad and mum said learn to write poetry send her a sweet love poem if she likes it, she will marry you---happily!
