I bought some flowers <br />Lovely bright <br />With hue and tint <br />Blended right <br />Gave a penny <br />To vendor old <br />But I knew not where love was sold? <br /> <br />I bought some chocolates <br />Sweetie delight <br />Soaked in honey <br />Feast for sight <br />Wrapped in silver <br />And foils of gold <br />But I knew not where love was sold? <br /> <br />I bought an outfit <br />Silky white <br />With pearly beads <br />Hemmed tight <br />The perfect fit <br />Each pleat and fold <br />But I knew not where love was sold? <br /> <br />I bought a card <br />With a love quote <br />Just as I thought <br />Someone had wrote <br />On a red heart <br />In letters bold <br />But I knew not where love was sold? <br /> <br />I bought a dinner <br />‘Candle light’ <br />Sparked talk <br />On winter night <br />Bodies warm <br />Heart but cold <br />But I knew not where love was sold?<br /><br />Seema Aarella<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/i-knew-not-where-love-was-sold/
