Valentine's day celebrates love; finding it is more difficult. Here's some advice. |
The Perfect Valentine A celebration of true love occurs this time each year. Yet finding love is difficult; the path is sown with tears. I've read so many love poems about finding my "soul mate" as if it was predestined by the fickle hand of fate. If you're looking for true love - one that will never fail - may I suggest a cold nose and a wagging tail? She's always glad to see you and listens when you talk. Sheโll help you stay in shape when you take her for a walk. She's always sympathetic when you've had a hard day but she'll be the first in line when you decide you want to play. She'll never say that you're too fat or that your butt's too wide and in any argument she'll always take your side. She'll listen to your bad jokes, even think that you are clever. She'll never stare into your eyes and drolly say "Whatever..." She's always up for kissing and she won't steal the covers. She'll protect when you need it and scrutinize your lovers. My final word on this to make the list complete - She'll never once complain if you leave up the toilet seat! An entry for "Invalid Item" Prompt: Love is in the air. Write a poem about it, but surprise me...mushy will not impress as much as creative! Line Limit: 25 Line Count: 18 |
