Valentines
...are special things,
..sometimes they're made of paper,
filled with words of love
and care and such...

But there are other
valentines,
..that have a special meaning,
they have a way of saying
just as much!

A newborn child
is a valentine,
..from the master of creation,
wrapped in warmth
and love from mama's touch...

Or newlyweds
with hallowed sounds,
..as wedding bells are ringing,
like valentines
as cupid plays the part!

And,
the little gray-haired couple share,
..a time-worn shadows' secret,
he takes her little wrinkled hand
to hold,

A gentle hug
and eyes that shine,
..they mean much to each other,
a valentine that's worth
its' weight in gold!

So,
touch a heart
and share a hug,
..give cards adorned
with cupids,

magic feelings
said in words displayed,
The reason why
a valentine,
..can soften dispositions,

they're shaped
like hearts
and
that is where
they're made!
