Jan, I read this poem when you first posted it. I didn't comment because I wasn't sure how I felt about it. Please don't misunderstand, I think it's a lovely poem and I understand your feelings about the modern idea of celebrating Valentine's Day. It seems to me, though, that you did celebrate the holiday in the most profound way possible by proposing on that day. I give my wife, daughter and sometimes others little gifts every year, but I also do that throughout the year.

I agree with your comments James:-) I did propose on the day but we never have celebrated it in a commercial way with buying cards and gifts - we do that throughout the year too:-) hugs jan xx

Loved it. We too have foresworn participation of VD (of course, Valentine's Day). But if I were to take notice, this would be our 40th together.

Jan Allison

Ha ha @ VD - its spreading across the globe and is very costly on people's wealth not health:-) hugs jan xx

that's the only way Love can be....not just one day where it can truly fly free....because if Love is truly in the heart....then everyday is when valentines start....and who just cant get it together....they are the ones to be lonely forever....awesome job jan....;)

Jan Allison
Date: 2/13/2016 11:31:00 AM

Thanks Eric - I proposed to my hubby on Valentine's day and it wasn't a leap year lol but we never have exchanged cards or gifts or bowed to commercial pressure on one day of the year:-) hugs jan xx

It is commercialized so much Jan. It shouldn't be a forced day to show love and appreciation.

Jan Allison
Date: 2/13/2016 11:27:00 AM

The Valentine's day industry must be worth billions Tim and we refuse to bow down to the pressure of commercialisation - we have never celebrated it and never will:-) hugs Jan xx
