Loving the V’day

I love my Violent Valentine

the gift that keeps on giving

now, after we dine, it’s time

to hit that button on the DVD.

*

Maybe John, maybe Rocky,

but no Notebook pairs well

with my red wine,

though these M&Ms are fine as Hell!

*

You say “Here, let me fill your empty glass,

before the ass-kickin’ starts!”

I like the fight scenes and the flash,

but never when the dog dies.

*

Chills are running down my spine.

Ok, yes! Will you be my Valentine?

Thank you for reading! This poem is based on a fine romantic evening.
