Ernestine's Valentine

A day set aside for lovers,
Marked by hearts and candy.
This poem I give to you my love,
For I think you're just dandy.

Since our first meeting years ago,
I've been happy as can be.
And though I seldom tell you,
You mean the world to me.

To you this day my love I give,
And while sealing it with a kiss.
I thank the Lord for making us,
A team that couldn't miss.
