Cynthia Jones Poet Rhyme

A Valentine's Day Message

A box of chocolates 
you won't need, 
a dozen long stem red roses 
will die, after a week. 

All you need is friendship 
to see you through, 
hugs a plenty 
and maybe a few kisses too. 

Candied cinnamon hearts 
may taste good, 
but a friendship lasts forever 
and though, it should. 

A Valentine's Day cake 
will last only, but a day, 
you can count on friendships 
they don't make you gain weight.
