Notes About The Poem

My first crown has caused me pain. Went to the dentist today. He adjusted the crown. I'm still in pain! Hoping I don't have to have a root canal but whatever to make this pain go away. Not going out to dinner. We will just have to celebrate later! Much more to our story but that is all for now folks! Happy friends day, my Valentines at PS! 

V a L E N

V A L E N 

sleepy v a l e n….snore
the day cupid wore
me out with pain and meds

sleepy v a l e n..biz
busy that is
for my love

this holiday’s not
a bunch of chocolate
or gifts…i don’t care

‘cause we’ve suffered
through good and bad
weathered the storm

letting the fish off the hook
my man i so love and
besides we bought a car

this one is just the oddball
year of pain and cheer
yes cheer because i’m loved

Aw, poor lady, I hope you're feeling a bit better tomorrow. This was a cool poem, Kim. The true value you clearly see, still having someone pamper you ain't all bad either ... whether in health or pain. Nice write though. Love and hugs to you and yours.
