On Bended Knee

On Bended Knee By Franklin Price 2/14/2015 On bended knee, I ask you, will you be my Valentine? Say yes, and I'll be happy, if you will still be mine. These years we've spent together, been so glad to have your hand. And while I'm here, on bended knee, I'd like to thank the man. I know he brought you to me, could not have found you on my own Had seen the ways, it should not be, when other seeds were sown Roads that we have traveled, mostly good, but sometimes rough. I thank the Lord, you've stayed with me, and never cried enough! I could go on forever, but I'm old, my knee is sore Please say yes and I'll be happy, to get off this hardwood floor Could not resist, to put that in, just a little joke of mine But it's not a joke, when I ask you, will you still be my Valentine? My wish for everyone, on this Valentine's Day 2016. is that you have someone in your life that makes you as happy as my wife, Barbara, makes me in mine Happy Valentine's Day to all!

A superb piece on Valentine's Day with a bit of wit and humor. I can relate to the sore knee.
