Valentine’s Day…
A day of pampering and pleasure,
Its February the 14th!
The day all lovers treasure 
When love is at its leisure,
Husbands! How DARE you NOT remember 
The insignia for the day- “Heart shapes in velvety red”.
Chocolates, cards, flowers and gifts are shared;
Candle lit dinners;
Rose petals on floors, sheets and pillows spread.
Eros flits about and from his touch no romantic heart is spared.
On this day some look to get laid;
Others seek to have past love replayed.
Friends laugh; Lonely hearts cry,
The words “Happy Valentine’s Day” is offered to the passer by.
But to me today is a day like any,
Earmarked by gifts, cards, cakes, love’s crest and candy!?
For this reason I say this prayer earnestly,
“Dear Eros, keep Valentine’s day tattooed on the hearts of many”
For we needn’t await 14th February to celebrate Love in all its glory….

True! Why wait for special days to do things worth doing? You’ve got a good point there!
Very creative writing FK! I’m wanting all of those things (except the girly ones)
Happy Valentines Day and many hugs!!
Beautiful! Happy Valentine’s Day, FestivalKing! ♥
Happy Valentine’s Day, beautiful one! I like that ending . .. we don’t have to wait to celebrate Love!
“For we needn’t await 14th February to celebrate Love in all its glory…” FK, the concept of the strike through you put in this line is VERY thought-provoking! The message comes out in vivid colours as your read and run into that style. Mmuuaaah! Good work and more kudos my dear.
Love it, I hope you had a good Valentine! God Bless
And you right we shoudln’t wait for the 14 to celebrate love!
