Valentines Day

Today is the day
For many love will begin
For others love will end
And for some tragedy will impend

Today is the day
Where shades of red fills the air
With flowers delivered everywhere
And cards that say how much they care

Today is the day
Many hearts will be a flutter
Some will melt like butter
While others may sputter

Today is the day
For many love will be shown
Yet others will have to postpone
While some will just be alone

Today is Valentines Day
A celebration of love
Whether your heart is shared with one
Or shared with none.

Today is the day
To show someone you care

Happy Valentines Day!!!

I think this day can be very sad for those who don't have a special someone. Others who are not romanticly inclined may also feel the associated anxiety and expectations. Still I must admit I enjoy the opportunity to show my appreciation for my sweetie.

Janet, Where did you find your great ability to write outstanding poetry at anyway? My start: Happy Valentine's Day, how should I tell? It was you who in love I fell. How about that for a starter? Jim

You must bring doing something right Jan. Very few people can say they have been together 4 years let alone 24. Congratulations. Have a great evening. Janet
