Valentine's Day Poetry - Poems for Valentines


Although Valentine's Day may be over for this year, being in love is never out of style! Here is a trio of original poems I have written in honor of Valentine's Day, and also in honor of love, whatever the season or time of year.

The Essence of Valentines - A Poem for Recalcitrant Men!

A poem for men who think Valentine's Day is a waste of your time and money to encourage you to give a little love and attention to your Valentine!

Hearts and romance and flowering vines
Cupids and candy saying, "Be mine."
Romantic gestures, sentiments sublime -
All part of the essence of Valentines.
Some men consider the day a waste,
Lacking in merit and void of taste,
But what's wrong with taking a lady to dine
And wishing a woman happy Valentines?
Our world is chaotic, and full of stress,
A romantic day shouldn't come with duress,
But happy is the man who finds the time
To show some attention to his Valentine.
You do not need jewelry, or flowers, or sweets
To give a lady the romance she needs -
Some thoughtful and tender attention is fine,
And should make the day a happy Valentines.
The essence of Valentines comes from the heart,
But a day for romance is a good place to start,
So make some sweet gestures; it's your turn to shine,
Treat your wife or girlfriend like she's your Valentine!

Valentine Acrostic - a Love Poem

An acrostic love poem

V elvety romantic nights,
A dmiring the glowing moon,
L ambent in the darkened sky.
E ntranced by this lovely sight,
N estled, we exist in tune,
T wo hearts, when apart, still nigh,
I n this most enchanted time
N eeding only your sweet sigh -
E ach breath of my Valentine

Carmine - A Love Poem

A Haiku for Valentine's Day

A heart of carmine,
The image of Valentines,
Let me give you mine...
