Valentine Promise
By Amanda Allen

Touch the air softly
Step gently. One, two…
I’ll love you till roses
Are robin’s-egg blue;
I’ll love you till gravel
Is eaten for bread,
And lemons are oranges
And lavender’s red

Touch the air softly
Swing gently the broom.
I’ll love you till windows
Are all of the room;
And the table is laid,
And the table is bare,
And the ceiling reposes
On bottomless air.

I’ll love you till Heaven
Rips the stars from his coat,
And the Moon rows away in
A glass-bottomed boat,
And Orion steps down
Like a diver below,
And the Earth ablaze
And Ocean aglow.


Touch the air softly
And swing the broom high
We will dust the gray mountains,
And sweep the blue sky,
And I’ll love you as long
As the furrow does plow,
As However is Ever
And Ever is Now.

My Gift
To You

You Are My Gift
By E.L. Mays

Something as sweet as you
Doesn't come in a heart shaped box
It comes right to my door
Every time that you knock

And something so beautiful
Doesn't need petals and thorns
It's the look in you eyes
That I truly love and adore

And words flowing with love
Don't need to be in some card
They are in the words that you speak
Which have softened my heart

And colors found in red and pink ribbons
Aren't needed on this Valentine's day
It's the blushing you've made on my cheeks
That never seems to go away.

And only one day a year is
Not nearly enough to say
That I shall love you more and more
With every passing day.

Sacred Is My Heart
By UrBaybee

I thought about the perfect gift
Never knowing where to start
From out of the blue it hit me
I'll just send you my heart

It's something that is special
It's been tried and it's true
But it can only respond
By the gentle touch from you

Please be careful, it can break
Give it 100% love everyday
Let your spirit guard it
Cause' it's forever here to stay

Treat it kind, treat it fair
Hold onto it with all your might
Let it comfort your sorrows
And help you sleep at night

While holding onto it
You'll feel as if I'm right there
I'm never far away from you
Or from the special love we share

Happy Valentine's Day
To the protector of my heart
I love you more each day
Our souls will never part

My Gift To You
By DyanEve

Sentimental moments, time spent with you
You melted into my soul, in love I grew
I truly love how you give your all to me
I am blinded with love, my eyes finally see
All the love you have inside to give
That in itself, gives me all the reason to live
You've turned my life around in so many ways
Now my mind is rested, my heart’s in a daze
I’m so full of energy, filled with so much pep
Your love has me alive, willing to take that next step
To love you forever, to take your hand in mine
To whisper softly I love you and tell you you're one of a kind
You're special to me in all that you say or do
That’s the reason I'm so in love with you
When you're feeling down and you need to smile
Think of our love, and it'll all be worthwhile
We proved our love over in being miles apart
That’s how I know darling, you're deep in my heart
My feelings for you grow stronger each day
I'm romantically in love with you, what more can I say
Trust in my love, I promise I won’t let you down
Just plant your feet firmly on solid ground
Lets cherish the time from this moment on
Without all this love, the excitement is gone
To love you forever is all I long to do
That's my special Valentine’s Day Gift to you

I Love You
By Lisa

I don't need a heart filled with candy,
Or a card that says "I love you".
I don't need a dozen roses,
To know that your love is true.
I don't need a romantic dinner,
With candlelight and wine.
I don't need fancy gifts,
To know that you'll be mine.
I don't need expensive jewelry,
Or a love song dedicated to me.
I just want to be in your arms,
Where you need me to be.
Sweet kisses from your gentle lips,
And your whispers in my ear,
Are
