My Valentine
You are the warmth in winter sloth
melody of tulips when spring froths
cool comfort in summer scorch
sound of silence as autumn falls.
You lighten me up as I dismay
your elfin smile charms my sleazy day
I see your face and my fear fades away
you are my love in every adoring way.
Sometime, life tastes musty, sadly!
we squander moments in shades
I even stumble to thank you
and forget to wish you well.
Today I desert the world and the rest
take a pause, hand you a rose, scarlet red
kiss your lips in an adolescent way
feel you deep like a tree that roots in its soil
whisper in your ears and softly say
you are my love, my Valentine!
today, and every single day.
