Upcoming Valentines

February 13, 2026

Is it already,

That time of year.

February,

Oh dear.

Kinda crazy,

How fast it passed.

Wonder maybe,

How time amassed.

Wishin’ I had,

More time to think.

Makes me sad,

When gifts stink.

Y’see, but I got,

No gifts to glean.

No hearts to spot,

On day fourteen.
