St. Valentine Day 2019

 Today we celebrate Lovers Day the world over. 

It's the current feeling of joy towards someone

we want to be with and hold tight. But a mixed set

of emotions are playing in my heart, as I remember

my life's long partner. So many Valentine cards, gifts

and poems, so much true care for her.. my love,

my wife who is no more, except in my heart, as I

move on. It is now a memory for me as it is for you

thinking of him, your love, your husband, too!

Do we celebrate this St. Valentine? Of course,

we do! For we are still here. The sun rises and falls

each day, all around the world keeps going as if there

is no tomorrow! Life is still frantic, life wants us to live.

So Happy St. Valentine, my love, my new love gifted

from Above for our Sunset Years! But we cannot think

of years, not even tomorrow! Because we know

and appreciate just how transient life can be. Today

is Now. The time we have. So let's celebrate this day

together, let's meet and dance! We leave our memories 

of our past love and move forward living a new chapter

of life. Loving you redeems our Love within and resurrects 

our hopes for new companionship. Let's be cheerful and raise  

our glasses to this St. Valentine Day. Let's celebrate and love 

each moment together. Oh my Saint Valentine Silvana!
