Joseph P. DiMino Poet Free verse

St Valentine

St. Valentine was a
loving saint – saw only
love, rejecting all hate –
considered love a blessed
fete – his purpose and his
mission. He extolled
the healing nature of Christ; 
mixing spiritual intimacy with 
man's usual rice – Proclaiming 
Christ His Messianic lover –  
both Bride and Groom, the
the Ultimate Wedding, and 
the Ultimate Bloom....
