Valentine's

V alentine's Day origin is because  A ncient Romans  L upercalia Feast E mperor Claudis II executed 2 men both name Valentine N ormans celebrated Galatin's Day- lover of women T radition that the masses adapted into their beliefs I s now a big business Nevertheless love should be celebrated  Everyday not just on Feb 14th Shakespeare wrote about Valentines Day in a glamorized way but didn't really acknowledge the origin of this day.  NOTE: To whomever reads this poem I'm not against sharing love but what I'm against is the masses choosing to pick one day to buy gifts for this particular day for that special someone. When there is 364 other days to celebrate their love with that special someone. MY QUESTION to you would be.. So why do you chose to use one day to give gifts to express your love?

Yes, it's true Patricia. - But it's nice with a day in the year when everyone thinks a little extra on their loved ones. - Very good poem, like it. - oxox / / Anne-Lise :)

Good point! I know that if we all took an Unexpected day and gave our love ones the same gift they would get on Valentines Day I'm sure they would cherish that gift even more than that specific day
