Valentines

It's
fun remembering days gone by,
The valentines that made us sigh,
The box at school with bright red hearts
That held the penny cards with darts
Or homemade greetings made in haste
With lacy trims and flour paste.
How
we loved each valentine
With sentiment, "Will you be mine?"
These gems now rest in faded books,
Tucked away in storage nooks.
It's great when there is time to while,
To read again these cards and smile.
We
reminisce about those days
So much a part of memory's maze,
And wonder 'bout the friends of yore,
Who added to our childhood lore;
Those whose names are on the lines
Of our keepsake valentines!
