Buttercup
I suppose it's time for me to explain,
Just how I decided on your nickname.
You were neither the sunshine or the rain.
And the word "babe" seemed overused and lame.
Your hair is yellow like Hosanna Hill butter,
And I could hold you with two hands, just like a cup.
Your eyes so beautiful they make my heart flutter,
To the point where it literally holds me up.
My feelings for you, I wish to remain,
So call me "darling", it is my nickname.
