Valentine Love
Love begins beyond the sky,
A seed of light among the stars,
Which somehow finds its way to earth,
And even at birth has travelled far.
It grows when it’s surrounded by
A Mother’s love, a Father’s care:
It ripens in the chrysalis
Of golden moments made to share….
To share with brothers, sisters, friends,
To lavish on a well-loved pet;
Good times with elders looking on,
Treasures too dear to forget.
It grows as long as life endures;
Fragile, yes, but also strong.
It binds us each to one another,
On our journeys all life long.
And if a day were set aside
To honor gifts from God above,
There’d be no greater candidate
Than all those feelings known as Love.
Written just for you
