Valentine's Day
Karyn Indursky
Don't bother buying me
a Hallmark card this year.
Don't bother buying me
a box of assorted chocolates.
Don't bother buying me
a pretty piece of jewelry.
Don't bother buying me
fancy perfumes to spray on.
Don't bother buying me
elegant clothing to strut in.
Don't bother buying me
a lavish dinner at a restaurant.
Don't bother buying me
any roses that will wither.
Don't bother buying me
a bottle of special champangne.
Don't bother buying me
presents from selected stores.
Take the time to show me
you truly care.
Take the time
to open doors for me.
Take the time to read me
something you wrote.
Take the time to spend
time with me.
Take the time to share
your dreams with me.
Take the time to tell me
about your day.
Take the time to smile
and laugh with me.
Take the time to walk
with me hands in hands.
Take the time to be affectionate
and show compassion.
Take the time to give me
all your love.
