There's a goofy melody that we used to use back ithe late '50's, but i can't think of the name of the song now.  Maybe you can figure it out from reading this spoof.  HVD, everyone! 

You are my Valentine You look like Frankenstein You smell like turpentine Your lips like iodine You wear size twenty-nine You mope around and whine But I like you mighty fine You're all I've got ~ You're mine!

Song's as silly as the poem. Just can't recall the melody... ~ Gershon

Hey, let's split up Valentine's Day poems. 1/2 of your sad one + 1/2 of my silly one, side-by-each, would make one of those great comic clown faces, don't you think?! Cheers, Gershon
