That looks quite "busy" to my taste.  My latest 5-minute hack is
something like this:

\markup {
  \column {
  \line {
  \italic \concat {
  \concat {
   \huge \bold \lower #.5 L
   \large ily
  }
  \concat {
    \large { \dynamic p }
    \large ond
  }
  }}}
  \line {
     \fontsize #5
       \rotate #270
       \translate-scaled #'(-4.2 . 2)
       \line
       { \musicglyph #"flags.u7" }
  }
}


hmm... now that I look at it again, the flag.u7 is really questionable.
