My Valentine

MY VALENTINE


A special day is set aside
To express the love I cannot hide
A day to say my heart is yours
From mountain peaks to ocean shores

You mean so very much to me
Much, much more than you may see
That is why I pray each day
And thank the Lord you came my way

I pray that we may always share
The love that He has planted there
Deep within this heart of mine
I love you, darling Valentine


This was written for Valentine's Day especially for my wife, Ruth.

I liked this. I did something a while ago called My Forever Valentine, which was sort of an answer to the the WHY of Elvis Presley's Fools Rush in. It was on another website (www.originalpoetry.com), and I just copied it over to this one--hope you check it out. Anyway, I liked your piece.
