[hometext] => Don/'/t write very often, but Valentine/'/s day soon so thot I/'/d give it a whirl.
[bodytext] => St.Valentine/'/s day - a spark for the flame
igniting the passions that sonnets proclaim.
Hearts are aflutter and Love is the core
for lyrics and lilts and odes by the score.
Clever with quiver and up for the show
Cupid is raising his infamous bow.
His arrows are true, but never a threat,
just the gentlest of touches to hearts who forget.
Arms open wide, for hugging is good
and others will follow to nourish the mood.
Is there one that you love, or one you desire?
Don/'/t hide in the shade if your soul is on fire!
Fashion those words that echo your thoughts,
no puerile charades, no shallow retorts,
preferring sweet phrases that make the heart dance
and the world will revolve with moonlight romance.

more than a commercial holiday
your poem sticks itself well
with more than anything material
I think it is all one needs to know
no matter how rich or poor
anyone could be capable of
what you prescribe, and all
should want to strive
to have such in their life
and they could,
as you say so well
for any reason, for any will
that should wish for such
Great poem!
though it seems anti-corporate
greeting card like. Damn oh darn,
you can never buy a perfect commercial
valentine card such as this.
It would be sad if it came of that.
it belongs in a great book of poetry
it/'/s cadence one tries to
memorize so they can recite
each and every word.
Peace! |

Yes indeed, more posts into the pot of love, to balance that dark bile on the horizon. Spud, you/'/re still a wordsmith, I see, and we are better for it, infrequent or no.

It is not how often you write that commands my appreciation, it is the fact that when you go mining for words, you always come up with gems.
Another one here and no doubt the next.
Keep writing, however infrequent, the world is a better place for it.
