Maude's Valentine
by Ellis Parker Butler

Last year I rhymed a valentine,
    And penned it on a dainty sheet
Of pink note paper; and I laid
    The offering at Kate's feet.

I have a copy here at hand:
    "Oh! Dearest Kate!" the lines begin;
"Oh! Dearest Kate" has married since, --
    And now I strive fair Maude to win.

And so to-night I take my pen
    And, as my muse is slow of late,
I use that valentine again, --
    Just substituting "Maude" for "Kate."


Maude's Valentine
