All sweetest thing one cannot buy.
Peppermint candies are six for a penny,
But true love and kisses, one cannot buy any.

  6. I'm confused. Was this a competition? It wasn't for me. Piglet "I wanted to be sure of you" . I love that. It's a simple expression of connection. I've had it and I've given it.

  7. No competition implied--
    just a tug at our collective hearts
