Valentine's Madness

To her I wanna give flowers I want to surprise her with the most expensive necklace I desire to take her out for a vacation in Miami She absolutely wants to see me Getting the most romantic dinner recipes Irresistible desserts of chocolate mousse She wants us to have a memorable Valentine's Day Absolute Valentine's madness. Last Valentine I plucked some rose flowers At Anyang' Nyong'o Botanical Gardens And wrapped them in a plastic transparent paper I had not enough to buy an expensive necklace But at least I afforded one The dinner recipes reflected the significance of the day Red wine with white meat at Kempinski That's the injection she needed for the day And of course I topped up her bank account What else can one offer on such a day? To do all these I stabbed my academics And went ahead to use the school fees Absolute Valentine's madness. At night she was trending in the media On every man's status and page A guy declaring her as the love of his life Another appreciating God for creating her on a Monday When He had strength and all the zeal With a secret account I saw her post a lad As the pillar in her life and all she had And I was blocked from viewing Absolute Valentine's madness. Romantic love on a Valentine's Day is absolute madness My conclusion and opinion It pricks like thorn and pinches so hard Valentine's day, absolute madness! John .O. Lenda(Poetic World,2022)
