I love the word "tokens" becuz (1) the photo gives one unique possibility and (2) this could be so many possibilities, it's an unexpected word that expands as one considers it. That, to me, is the point of writing these short formats - picking words that bloom in the reader's mind (((HUGS))) Fondly, Margie
How lovely this would be, tied up in a red bow! I love flowers and chocolate, but there's just something special about a gift that is custom made with love. It becomes a souvenir through the years, and those years become more endearing with the passing of time. Beautiful words, Phil!

i really like this...love, intentions, passion...that is the real Valentines gift...not Chocolates or Flowers...even though they can be nice...material never outweighs Heart.

Would've copied and passed this to my valentine,,,, only if i had one😅
Jokes apart, This fervent and beautiful senryu is being loved by me....though everyday is special to love, valentine's can be an excuse to express the suppressed feelings of love to the person one adores....Ah, tis my opinion only...
I loved reading your poem dear Phill...Much love💞
I am caught in a time spiral of confusion; that period we all experience between birth and death.
