You love the roses – so do I. I wish
The sky would rain down roses, as they rain
From off the shaken bush.
George Eliot

I am enjoying the last blooms of my Valentine’s Day roses.

We Everyday Our Love
by Phil Turner

I mechanic her car
She Tide’s my T’s
I Monday her garbage
She Friday’s my cleaning
I divide her labor
She trims my toil.

She Bonnies my Clyde
I Adam her Eve
She cheeks my touch
I rhythm her dance
She buzzes my waking
I dream her sleep.

I young her years
She discos my decades
I friend her blog
She twitters my tweets
I pony her express
She feathers my flight.

She weaves my fingers
I arm her hug
She smiles my tears
I pillow her pain
She peppers my tonic
I tang her tart.

I pumpkin her muffins
She chickens my soup
I wine her friends
She beers my buddies
I coffee her morning
She juices my day.

She blues my sky
I sun her moon
She mosses my path
I soul her walk
She lyrics my song
I sing her life.

What greater thing is there for two human souls than to feel that they are joined…to strengthen each other…
to be at one with each other in silent unspeakable memories.  – George Eliot

If I had known that he was going to be my only great love, I would never have let him go.

The stars try to imitate the glitter in your eyes
But fail helplessly and cry for your sight
To pacify my heart which pounds and weep
To see you till its last beat.
from The Glitter in Your Eyes – C. N. Premkumar

This Valentine’s Day take a moment to behold your lover’s beautiful eyes.

When you smiled you had my undivided attention. When you laughed you had my urge to laugh with you. When you cried you had my urge to hold you. When you said you loved me, you had my heart forever. Anonymous

February is my favorite month! I am an incurable romantic and although my expectations for Valentine’s Day have never been fulfilled, I still hold onto my fantasy that one day they will!
