Notes About The Poem

If only we could return to those days and practice that kind of friendship as adults.

Elementary Valentine

Elementary Valentine
By Franklin Price

Do you recall this holiday
In the early years of class?
Everyone brought Valentines
Around the room to pass

It was a very special day
All were your Valentine
Taking home as many as you brought
Had you feeling more than fine

This is my Valentine to you
A friend in life's long class
Share it with some other friends
Whether Elephant or Ass

Politics could take a lesson
From those days that made us smile
When all of us were equal
And passed the cards across the aisle
