An Updated Valentine
I guess I have given you
a drawer full of hearts over
the years. As well as a
bucket of tears. Love
seldom runs easy.
I guess I have settled you
in many secure ways,
while also leaving your heart
quite queasy. Love is
not always dove-y please-y.
Yet, know this! Between
shouts and kisses, between
pouts and blisses, there has
never been another. You are
my only Valentine, in this
world, and doubtful anyone else
would long put up with either
of us, while here or even in some
elevated other.

Updated Valentine
Well, 6 months quickly pass;
since my level headed choice --
the apartment has been tidy
and the dog now uses the grass --
If not for that spilled olive oil
that put me in a cast, your company
has been superb, though our food
is best all Fast. With or without fries my
dear?
