Post-Valentine Haiku
lips pressed, licking tongue
sweet flesh, tart, musky white juice -
luscious nectarine.

Valentine's Day - Part Four

a mother's advice:
maybe it's not worth the effort
if there's no spark
Cesca Alice

Furtive glance and blush.
Stare out the window and dream.
Dare I look again?
Chris Gill
iii.
Card on the mantelpiece
Years together now totalling 10
Still warm and fuzzy.
Shell Pocock

Valentine's Day - Part Three

Ode to Valentine:
Love’s worth in chocolate boxes -
Patron Saint of carbs?
Cathy Dineen

martyr of the faith
relics in an irish church
excuse for chocolate
'no croquet today'

Seeking intimacy
I share one of my ripened pears
soft, sweet.
Karen McVean
iv.
Object of desire,
your envied emblem: roses.
Mine? An address book!

Valentine's Day - Part One

Valentine,
Does this need to have a name?
Or a box?

Chocolate heart in foil,
dozen long-stemmed red roses...

Anticipation
red roses and dopamine
Twice the enjoyment

it smells like cheap french perfume
cynics live for it
