Be My Valentine
I don't believe in fairy tales,
Or Santa Claus and such,
But I do believe in kindness,
And a loving, tender touch.
I don't believe in pots of gold,
At a rainbow's colored end,
But I believe in happiness,
With my very dearest friend.
I don't believe in lucky charms,
Or in playing games of chance,
But I believe in starry nights,
And the warmth of new romance.
I don't believe in potions,
In concoctions, or other brews,
But I really do believe in love,
Which Cupid's arrow can infuse!
So on this day for lovers,
I hope you won't decline,
When I come right out and ask you,
If you'll be my Valentine!
Carmen Henesy

Carmen, you are really a great poet! I love this poem.
ReplyDelete(Regarding the comment that you're spending way too much time with the computer, you're not alone!
I don't have a life either :-), and yes I also neglected my household chores. My son said my laptop got to sit more on my lap than he does...just so you know, I'm here with you :-0)

I think it's great to spend Valentine's with a group of single friends - who knows, you might just meet that special someone if Cupid is out and about!!
