Cupidity

In honor of February, the looming Valentine's Day holiday, and the fact that I just made up a brand new new meaning for a word (as far as I know), I'm going to share a poem that I wrote for my husband Jerremy. The word I made up a new meaning for  is 'cupidity' - and I have decided that it now means either doing stupid things for love or the state of being head-over-heals in love. 

Here is my poem for Jerremy: 

There was an avatar girl, quite genteel,
who met an avatar guy with appeal.
He rezzed in her yard
She made him hard.
And that led to true love, for real.

I know! That's 31 words of pure romance right there. (It's just my cupidity showing.)

By the way, I counted the words, because I just entered my poem into the 'Love Notes' contest that the Lab is holding. There's a 50 word limit. I'd already written the poem days before I heard about the contest on Plurk (Friend me! Friend the Lab!). I have no idea when the contest ends or even if there are any prizes, but apparently you can enter there yourself and browse the other entries and give kudos/star ratings to the ones you like. *cough* *cough*

  1. Cupidity is already a word and that isn't what it means.

    1. I learn something new every day! But I did make up a new meaning for it, so there's that!
