I Lie In Wait
My bow and arrow I have with me
All ready set in place
To use the very next time I see
Cupid's smiling face
I lie in wait expectantly for him
An ambush I have prepared
No sleep will these eyes of mine have until
His arrows of love I have shared
The very first moment I see him approach
Smiling and wielding his bow
I will draw back with my own true aim
Catch him with his own arrow
Then I will stand with a smile of my own
What a sight to behold it shall be
To watch Cupid fall in love himself
And see how it feels to be me
All ready set in place
To use the very next time I see
Cupid's smiling face
I lie in wait expectantly for him
An ambush I have prepared
No sleep will these eyes of mine have until
His arrows of love I have shared
The very first moment I see him approach
Smiling and wielding his bow
I will draw back with my own true aim
Catch him with his own arrow
Then I will stand with a smile of my own
What a sight to behold it shall be
To watch Cupid fall in love himself
And see how it feels to be me

Thought provoking and on the poignant side. Good post, Neva!
So sweet and full of hope, thank you Neva.
That'll teach him to be pointing his arrows just any ol' direction. : ]
