A story of bought love

By

Saw love on the market
She wore pink, in this basket
Her buyer was swell
Her seller as well
These two had quite the bargain
Then the deal was struck. They both gained!
“Your heart for her”
“Your mind for her”
The swelled sir of course did not think
Who won’t give heart and mind for love in pink
So he strolled off with her in delight
His heart and mind gone. I knew, the seller knew
He’s blind to see lust in light.
