My Valentine

What do I see of Thee

When you look at me?

I do not see the years that have creased your face

I do not see the silver that has become your crown

I do not see the concern for the weight of this world

I do not see the effects of life's daily stresses

I see you

I see the little girl spinning in a one person race

I see the caring so deep within your eyes of brown

I see the majesty and grace waiting to be unfurled

I see your heart in the hand that blesses

Yo te veo

Tu eres que bonita y cómo una reina gloriosa

Tu tienes un corazón cómo una joya preciosa

Tu voz es cómo el canto de un pájaro dulce

Tu vida es cómo la musica de los instrumentos mas finos

My Valentine

What do I see of Thee

When you look at me?

I see my life fully filled in your friendship

I see the greatness in the Child of God

I see the little girl who doesn't see

I see the woman who needed me

My Valentine

What do I see of Thee

When you look at me?

I see you

My valentine, my heart, my love, my life on earth, my wife

What a beautiful and heartfelt write. All we ever want is for someone to love us for who we are and for the life we lead. Candies and flowers can never take the place of knowing that someone loves us deeply without reservations. Your poem speaks straight from the soul and heart. Happy Valentines Day to you and yours.

This is a very sweet, very beautiful poem! The love and adoration for your valentine is woven through so exquisitely! Reading it is like walking through a mountain garden at sunrise. I love it!! You should write one every year!

Oh Doc, this was the most beautiful piece I have ever read. Flowed like music to my ears and such heartfelt, warm and loving sentiments. A love to behold. Nothing better. Gorgeous feelings and writing...

Yo te veo

Tu tienes un corazón cómo una joya preciosa
Tu voz es cómo el canto de un pájaro dulce

Una vida larga juntos canta el instrumental de armonía a la canción de vida..a beautiful poem...she is a lucky woman!
How beautiful is this??!!

[TL Boehm]

Oh yea. that would do it for me if my husband wrote a poem like this. Romantic, warm - intimately tailored, all the things a great Valentine poem should be. Did she love it?
of course my hub is not a writer, but I did get barbeque - which means I ADORE YOU. So I'm blessed.
A wonderful write.

[Markymark]

Well, this was a wonderfully sappy piece. I'm sure heartfelt too. I feel the same way about my Valentine. Now I just have to go tell her. Who says monogamy is dead? Not at my house...

Kudos
