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.
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.

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.
