Debra Squyres Poet Free verse

Valentine Attributes

Valentine Attributes 

Crusading dictations
Gathering together
Professing devotions
Arousing emotions

Holiday flourishing
Underlined greediness
Commercial dictated
Composing emotions

Weariness withstanding
Tirelessly pretending
Valentine’s forgotten
Closeted emotions

Richard Lamoureux February 3, 2013 at 9:35 AM You speak the truth. This time of year puts so much pressure and expectations on people. For so many it is a very sad day. Debra Squyres February 3, 2013 at 10:51 AM Use to embrace it...but when I lost my valentine...seems I lost my heart for this holiday, among others. Blessed be.
