The hour has come to write in rhyme;
The season's here...it's Valentime.
O let me light my valenTapers
And read of lovers in the papers...
Romantic hippos munching flowers,
And husbands building valenTowers,
And moms with Whitman's Sampler grins,
...And reunited valenTwins,
As oldsters cuddle, saying, "Dear",
I'll shed a nostalgic valenTear...
Determined, now, I'll say again,
You set the standard, valenTen,
Though some may say we're getting ripe,
You are my only valenType.
Tonight, beneath our heart-shaped moon,
While humming a homemade valenTune,
I'll bless the fluke that made you mine:
...Please always be my Valentine!
