10 of 12 given words:
wrong, know one strength, rich
makes long measures length love
It is not wrong to know one's strength
So rich in bright yellow spurts of spring
It makes long measures of wanting to extend
The season's beauty to flaunt its bidding
Length of words to hide the blushes
The young gallivanting with their innocence
The main players snapping up red roses
Love pushing its luck for the occasion
Hoping to get out of the dark
To invoke love's annual exuberance
Happy Valentine!
