Valentine’s Love

I could send you a box of flowers,

One rose for each time
I’ve thought how lucky I am
To be loved by you.

Unfortunately,

I could not find a box
Big Enough!

So… I decided to send you Kisses!

One kiss for each
Wonderful gift of love
You’ve given to me.

I called Hershey’s.

They called me NUTS!
Six million, two hundred fifty three thousand,
Four hundred and thirteen… Kisses.

Oh well…

You don’t like chocolate
THAT much…
(even if the kids helped to eat them...)

A Song!

I’d find the perfect song
And sing it just to you.

So I listened…

To every song I could find.
Do you know how many love songs there are?

But alas…

None could begin to express
All the love I have for you.
At least… none I could sing
Without driving the cat to hide
And making the dog hoooowwwwl!

A picture!

I’d draw you
A picture…
Of Love…
... and Romance!

I stopped…

Right after
The stick figure of Cupid.
Vermeer I’m not.

What to Do!
What to Do!

It’s Valentine’s Day.
I want you to KNOW
How much I love you.

Could it be…

That it IS the THOUGHTS
That count?
The thoughts of love,
The thoughts that bring kindness,
Tenderness,
And smiles?

I hope so,

Because I really do
Love you.
Every day.
Not just Valentine’s Day.
