A Rejected Valentine
Georgie, dressed up spick
and fine,
Presented himself as a valentine
To little Polly, who tossed her
head,
Turned up her nose, and pertly
said:
"My goodness me! Why, don't
you know
You're not a card, with a ribbon
bow,
You're just a boy-not a valen-
tine!"
Then George blushed and meekly
said:
"To you by Cupid I was led:
And my love for you, so very
true,
Is tied about by ribbon blue."
But Polly laughed in a teasing
way,
And said: "I'll bid you a good
day.
Some other girl may not decline
To take you as her valentine."
