Happy Valentine's Day: A poem for my love on Valentine's Day...

Ode to Belly Button

I know I'm just
A bit of fuzz
But I have
Aspirations too
Someday I hope to
Move from this collar
And be inside
Of you.

To that soft crevice
That tiny nook
I dream to do
My stint
Cozy and warm
With the others
We'll form
A perfect
Ball of lint.

No one knows
For sure
How we get from
Here to there
Across your chest
Down the trail
Tangled in your hair.

One day
I dream
The time will come
It will be my turn
For it is a button
In your soft belly
For which I yearn.

So please
'Mind the brush
Don't do away
With me just yet
I'd prefer not to
End up on
The floor
Or inside of
Your pet.

To that soft crevice
That tiny nook
I dream to do
My stint
Cozy and warm
With the others
We'll form
A perfect
Ball of lint.
