Valentines day

This day it comes but once a year,
A time to think of people we hold dear.
To show our love in many ways,
For at times we forget on the other days.

The cards we get some from people we know,
Some they are sent just for show.
Others come from people we know less,
Who is it from we can only guess.

Secret loves, hopes and dreams with desires untold,
Show their feelings waiting for love to unfold.
Will they be noticed who can tell,
Will they just remain under your spell.

Some are lucky their true love to find,
For the others it keeps them being kind.
The ideas they have of a love affair,
No longer single but one of a pair.

This outpouring of love why only once a year,
Why don't we share our love through out the year.
The words I love you are they so hard to say,
Why do we only say them on Valentines Day.
