Valentine's Day Poems


Making Valentines

In February, what shall I do?
I'll make some valentines for you.
The first will have a cupid's face;
The second will be trimmed with lace.
The third will have some roses pink;
The fourth will have a verse in ink.
The fifth will have a ribbon bow;
The sixth will glisten like the snow.
The seventh will have some lines I drew;
The eighth, some flowers--just a few.
The ninth will have three little birds;
The tenth will have three little words:
I LOVE YOU!


LOVE

Ricky was "L" but he's home with the flu.
Lizzie, our "O", had some homework to do.
Mitchell, "E" prob'ly got lost on the
way.
So I'm all of love that could make it today.

~Shel Silverstein~



Read see that me
up will I love
and you love you
down and you and


WILL YOU PLEASE BE MY VALENTINE?

Remember when a Valentine
Was just a name that you just drew
And you could give that Paper Heart
To someone you barely knew.

Or you maybe gave your Heart
To everybody in your Class
Drawn and cut, with Your Words
That were so much Fun to pass.

And too, those little Candy Hearts
That you used to pass around
Searching Colors and the Words
Until that Perfect One was found.

And remember that Special One
Who made your Heart skip a beat
Who you gave that Special Card
Who gave your Heart a Special Treat.

And remember how easy it was
To tell a Classmate, "I Love You!"
Not just three meaningless words
Cause everyone knew they were True.

Oh, for those Days of Innocence
When everything seemed to be Just Fine
And you weren’t afraid to ask aloud,
"Will you please be my Valentine?"

~Del "Abe" Jones~
