Happy Valentine’s Day. Last year it seemed as if lots of different people were singing to me. For some reason, this year it’s Van Morrison. Here are a couple of light ones.
“Crazy love,” I love
That craziest phrase in all
Its redundancy
Valentine, a saint
But not first guy, or last, who
Lost his head this day
I wrote a lot of verses last year, but for some reason this one got the most response. Hmmmm.
It’s Valentine’s Day!
Hug your sweetie; love your spouse
Just don’t let them meet
The whole 2011 bunch is here.
And here are the rest of this year’s, not so light.
Courageous, we love
Surrender our hearts, ourselves
Out beyond the fear
Courageous, we love
Losing those we hold most dear
Inevitably
No more to savor
Taste of salt, scent of flowers
Intoxicating
No more to drink in
Every line, curve, lash and lock
With forever’s thirst
But till then we dare
To love with all our senses
Out beyond all sense
