A word to the wise is unnecessary. It's the stupid ones that need the advice. -Bill Cosby


The day of love
The day of red
The only things I see

So many roses
kisses and hugs

The gifts given
I expect none
I don’t want them

The gifts given to me
Is the smiles and thank yous
from those receiving
The gifts from me

It’s my chance
To be creative
To give life and happiness
To my many friends

Cliché
As the day may be
I like the cliché
Only this day

I want no gifts
No flowers
No love
It’s my turn
To give it all back

I may be alone
This Valentine’s Day
But enjoy
The happiness
Of everyone else

I may
Cry later today
But until then
I’d live with the smiles
Wear it all out

Love the day
On this day of love
Valentine’s Day

Valentine's Day is not a day of love for me, but a great big gift-giving day!
