Journey Journal Page MY VALENTINE (For my darling Ann) By Leon Enriquez Valentine’s Day brings a fond trace A certain way your soul binds grace In your deep eyes my darling dear A pulse, a sigh frames love right here ~~~~~~~~~ Poise in pure voice brings joy that stays With lovely choice in light of day Here for a while the moments style A touch worthwhile that clusters smiles ~~~~~~~~~ In space and time a special touch Make mime and rhyme with words as such So many years have bridged the gap To draw you near in love’s mind map ~~~~~~~~~ Change has come round with ageing pains Still on these grounds joy bears all strain In language plain a succinct feel Knows love that gains a deeper thrill ~~~~~~~~~ Faith gathers hope in love’s full sway To sculpt fine scope each brand new day We’ve come so far as each year tints Our lucky stars with textured mint ~~~~~~~~~ Our journey quest upon these streets With work and rest our story greets How time has flown with dreams of yore The winds have blown our ample shores ~~~~~~~~~ Change is the way as time moves on To sketch new play a tale beyond So style a smile my darling dear To brave a while touch that endears ~~~~~~~~~ In heat and thaw let joy breathe high The truth made raw in lasting sighs And as we walk now hand-in-hand Know that death stalks that abrupt end ~~~~~~~~~ Love is the way to live each day With joy that strays upon our way Dear Valentine, my love, my friend Let my love lines shape happy trends ~~~~~~~~~ With mind and heart we live one whole End as we start to live with soul The way joins fest to live full feel Love flavours best fond touch that thrills ~~~~~~~~~ May all our days be filled with grace Grace shows the way as light funds face Dear Valentine: my soul mate dear Now yours and mine deep mystic cheer ~~~~~~~~~ Leon Enriquez 14 February 2024 Valentine’s Day & CNY 2024 Day #5 Singapore
