Valentines: A
Romantic’s View
You ask, I
answer.
Love, as if a
butterfly,
Spreads its
wings to soar.
Valentines: A Pragmatist’s View
A day for unloading
Red, heart-shaped boxes
Full of bite-sized temptations
With anonymous centers.
Valentines: A Child’s
View
Twenty-some cards
with labored signatures
Carefully deposited
into twenty-some white bags
Painstakingly
covered in pink and red hearts.
