Be My Valentine?

a poem for romantic love

By Shanon Angermeyer NormanPublished 12 months ago 1 min read
Do you call him Cupid or St. Valentine?

Chocolates, Red Ribbons, and Romantic Fluff

have little to do with saints and courtly love....

The feast of St. Valentine is not for Cupid,

yet some lovers suppose that romance is stupid.

Please don't take offense if I ask you to be Mine ---

or would you be My Valentine?
