Valentine




For My Valentine


In my worst nightmare I’m young
again and realize I have yet to learn
everything that required pain to be
who I am today.  Being old is bad
enough but to be young again?
No thanks. 

My Valentine was there, pretty,
but not as beautiful as she’s become: 
sparkling eyes, patient (could I
be the cause of that?) a friend
to everyone she meets, and kind,
especially to me.

  1. Keep up the pace you two, I'll daw the drapes and put on the ham and eggs. Carolyn says she'll work on the balloons as soon as she returns from Bangok
