Here is a Valentine Love poem from Barb Wiatrak Young, friends from our high school days. Share her warm thoughts of how to say I Love You.

 How Do You Say I Love You..

by barb wiatrak-young

How do you say I love you,

To speak the true words from the heart,

Feelings so deep and poignant,

Just where and how can you start...

Love isn't words or just phrases,

Or a glance and maybe a smile...

Love is a myriad mix,

Of caring and sharing the while..

Love isn't some little token,

Or a gift of glittering gold,

If warmth isn't filling the heart,

Gifts are useless and cold..

Love is a mix of so many things,

A kiss, a smile, and some tears,

Kindness, and patience, & caring

Quieting each other’s fears..

Love is a touch of the hand,

A glance from sparkling eyes,

Laughing and crying together,

Love is a gracious surprise...

Love is knowing the feelings,

That make up the other ones heart,

Missing, and wishing and longing,

Whenever you two are apart..

Love is a mixture of life’s seeds,

That you must nurture with care,

It’s the sweet & warm satisfaction,

That someone will always be there.

And when twilight comes stealing,

Taking the sunshine and dawn,

Its knowing that love is forever,

And that will help you go on..

I've missed connecting with you. It is now the middle of the art season, always a busy time. I am currently showing in three Phoenix juried shows with two show deadlines due the 1^st of March, entries to be juried for Spring Shows.

With this opportunity, here’s wishing you a most enjoyable Valentine Day.
