From My Heart To Yours

I dipped my pen
in the golden ink
of my heart and wrote
a Valentine’s letter
I perfumed it with
the sweet scent of love
Adorned it with rose petals
and pressed with lipstick
kisses on it
Then I delivered it
to your heart

So close your eyes
to find it within
Unfold it, smell it and feel it
and read, my love,
read and soak it in

A Celebration Of Love

On this Valentine’s day
I could bring you an ode,
sing you a love song,
I could write you a poem
And tell you
in rhyme and words
in melody and colours
How much I love you
Each day even more

But then I realized,
Words wouldn’t have the right depth
Colours wouldn’t have enough brightness
And each melody would be
too mundane

So then I made in my heart
A celebration of our love
Not for you to read,
to hear or to see
But to feel
