Valentines

by Bill Turner   Feb 7, 2006


It is centuries old
The lamest holiday
Of the Hallmark mold
It is just another day

One day a year
Flowers and a card
From the person you hold dear
Rest of the year emotionally scarred

There is another way
Shower them with love
Each and every day
On a pedestal above

Live life with passion pure
Love guiding your heart
Give them your love as a cure
Each day a new start

Keep your romance alive and well
Loving each other for life
Spill your potion cast your spell
Each day loving like a new husband and wife

You need have no fear
Show them a better way
Forget about Valentines once a year
Make each morning a loving day

    Superb write! Sad to say, but I actually forgot this is February, nevermind remembering Valentine's Day. And I disagree it's not the lamest holiday, but it is just another day.
