Happy Valentine’s Day, my dear friends and readers. I offer you today a gift of three random poems. They are snippets of thoughts that have cluttered my mind in recent days. Now, unburdened, I will enjoy the rest of the day. Hugs and kisses to you all. Stash
The Times, They Are…
What in life is sadder than
An old guy wearing a pony tail?
Trying hard to hold onto youth…
Knowing all the time that he’ll fail.
The years and decades slip by.
Unnoticed, it happens in a blur
But at a certain point in time,
An awareness begins to stir.
A changing of the guard has occurred
And the upstarts have taken the lead.
Like a line from one of Dylan’s poems…
Denim has now replaced the tweed.

An Opinion
I dislike those who cry, “I LOVE THE SNOW!”.
They’re bad news… nothing but trouble.
They ski and sled in winter’s icy show…
But they don’t dare touch a shovel.

He asked…
Will you be my Valentine
And share, with me,
A small bit of your heart?
Can you find a bit of time
And maybe, for a day,
Be my dear sweetheart?
Summoning all his boldness,
He posed his inquiry
Through worry and distress.
Concerned she’d respond with coldness,
Much to his delight,
She answered warmly…
Yes.
