My Spaghetti Letters Spell "Love"

I fixed myself some alphabet soup,
From a dull aluminum can.
I pulled off the top, with its jagged edge,
And poured it into the pan.
I stirred until it reached a boil,
With cerise bubbles aglow,
Pulled out my spoon, took a seat,
And gave the spoonful a blow.
I peered down upon the lustrous metal,
The carmine steaming broth,
And low and behold, a single word
Was etched inside the froth.
L-O-V-E,
The letters seemed so clear,
Like the waters of a flowing spring;
I held this soup so dear.
I saw within the hazy murk,
A stunning, warm reflection,
A picture of a certain boy,
Who retains all perfection.
Like a shocking revelation
As solid as a boulder,
I saw him there, a grinning stare,
As he peeked over my shoulder.

    Rhyming is fun.

    Believe me cheesy love poems do not suck especially this one. I really enjoyed it. Especially the lines:

    I saw him there, a grinning stare,
    As he peeked over my shoulder.

    This was a sweet poem and definitly deserved the silver. Congrats!

    My favourite lines.
    This is a very clever piece, and I don't think it's cheesy at all! I think it's beautiful and different.

    Thank you for entering and good luck!!

    As if I weren't giddy and goo-goo-eyed already... long story... ehem, this one reminds me of how little kids used to write eachother "love" letters, and I can see some little girl having an epiphany through these means just before she says yes to her admirer! Awwweee! How cute! I L-O-V-E love love this one!!!
