British

The British Are Coming (To My Heart)

Lend me an ear
And you shall hear
Of a Great Love Story so precious...so dear!
It began not so long ago; about a year,
A Story of Love that continues to persevere.

One fine Autumn day
My heart gave a sigh
As it twinged with dismay,
Downcast, broken, and just ready to die..

When out of the blue came the sound of trumpets
And the alarm blared warning of a British invasion!
I heard the sound of cannons shooting and of muskets
And then I listened and my heart beat from all this commotion.

The British are Coming! The British Are Coming! was all I heard say
And my heart rejoiced on that warm Autumn Day
Indeed the British did come my way
From the English shores of Oxfordshire
Armed with the ammunition of a kind loaded heart
All my passion he ignited with his everlasting fire.
Now my heart hasn't been quite the same since that British invasion..
It now sings with joy as it flies over the horizon
Gladden, so gladden by the British incursion.
Now it sings the British Anthem
And the British Flag hovers and waves in its new soil
Honoring the coming of my Love, so charmingly handsome!
My heart pledges alligence to my fine British beau
And, oh! This is the Sweetest Love Story you'll ever know!

This Poem is dedicated to my boyfriend, Alex Aris!
