Today is a day when some people get all poetical.
Many will choose to leave the word-smithing to Hallmark to explain feelings, but the brave will pick up their pens to put words to on paper.
So, fellow Word Nerds, the quest today is to help humanity with a repository of appropriate Valentine's Day words, should they feel the need to pen some amourous verses.
To begin: (with a nod to Johnny Mercer and Michael Feinstein for the "Too Marvelous for Words" song)
adorable
amorous
glorious
glamorous
rapturous
fabulous
tintinnabulous
date
dalliance
tryst
romance
l'amour
heart
soul
Ok. Word Nerd is nauseous from trying to think of more mushy words. Please post what you think of to help grow the list. The key here is appropriate -- in this case, appropriate means, "probably not appearing in a paperback romance novel."
