Valentines Day Poem by John Staveley
Valentines Day
When you've opened your card from hallmark,
And eaten your breakfast in bed,
When you've shared out the last of the chocolates
And all the roses are dead,
When the stars in the heavens are lost to our sight
And the churches have washed away,
You will still own my heart completely
And today will be Valentine's Day.
For our love is not made out of paper
Nor cocoa, nor petals, nor light.
Our love is composed of an infinite force
Which occurs when I hold you tight.
That love will outlast any doctrine
Any hymns or letters or psalms.
Our love will outrun distance itself,
As long as you're held in my arms.
Our bodies may become fragile
Our hearing or eyesight poor
But when I hold you, at the end of the day,
I know that our love will endure.
it seems Valentine's Day is preferred over Valentines Day. i checked. :)
hallmark might ask you to capitalize. esp. since you did capitalize V. Day. i liked the story, the telling of it, and the rhyming. thanks for sharing. i give it a very good, a rare mark for me to give. i most enjoyed: Our love will outrun distance itself, . ya know, i read it again and have decided to score it excellent, only the second poem i've scored as such in this contest.
An enchanting poem that flowed and rhymes well and was a joy to read.
