Notes About The Poem

Barbara will always be my Valentine

My Valentine Since Sixty-Nine

My Valentine Since Sixty-nine
(To: Barbara with love)

You are my love and soul mate
We met in nineteen sixty-nine
We were lost and searching for
A forever Valentine

We both thought love had passed us by
Would never come our way again
God had other plans for us
That year our journey would begin

We found each other through his grace
His plan would come to be
In November we were married
And became a family

You and I and Danielle Dawn
Traveled down life's road together
When the sun was shining bright
Through clouds and stormy weather

Always there for one another
As each Valentine's was cast
Thanking God for his good graces
In twenty twenty-two you passed

You will always be my Valentine
Though you are on the golden shore
Where you're waiting there to greet me
Valentines forevermore
