Have you ever written something you knew you could not top? Well I did when I wrote “Volente’s Valentine” so instead of writing another Valentines Day poem I am going to post this poem again. I know it seems pessimistic but honestly it’s a realistic point of view. We spend so much time obsessing on one day there and one day here we tend to loose sight of all our days. The point of life is to live “everyday” to its fullest no matter what that day brings. So I wish you a happy Valentines Day and every day before and after.

It’s a day of flowers and roses
Adorned with ribbons and bows
Of teddy bears with fluffy ears
And crushes that nobody knows
A day for candy and cookies
fancy little cards that sing
red paper hearts with velvety parts
dangling from red velvet string
it’s a day for the romantic dreamer
to make a few wishes come true
a shiny surprise with tears in the eyes
the grandiose event made for two
A day of gifts so breath taking
splendors that money can buy
vacations on beaches with baskets of peaches
commercials that sell you a lie
It’s a day just like all the others
Ignore all the rest if you choose
For while you’re nitpicking your time goes on ticking
And you never get back what you loose
