A Valentine Poem in the Old Style
A Valentine Poem in the Old Style
by Danny C. Wash
On Valentine’s day, what cannot be said
yet needs to be said that hides beyond tongue
must somehow arise from the heart into sound.
But, how can such words be arranged, be uttered
in a manner of understanding; words fail one’s
true feelings and depth of love for the one of
our affection. Deep emotions of the heart locked
inside, unable to be loosed in words to the one
who waits for these earnest feelings to be set free
with, at least, the three little words, “I love thee.”
But, this simple poem comes from one’s heart to be
a small release of these feelings from deep within me.
