To my Valentine

don't bother buying over-priced flowers.

they wilt.

forget the extravagant card.

it will go in the recycle bin.

look at me and listen

every day.

At night, I hug you first

and then I roll over for sleep and you hug me

before going back to reading your book.

ski with me without giving me too much instruction

and let me pace you up to the boys on my

new electric bike.

thank you for the gift

I love it.

I love you,

my dear Valentine.
