Eight-line Poems

For He Who Would A-Wooing Go

For He Who Would A-Wooing Go

Stars and moonlight serenade,
peach and cherry lemonade,
chocolate squares and peppermint,
a classic book that’s out of print,
orchid sprays and roses too,
gallant deeds and derring-do,
which of these will win her heart?
Best find out before you start.
