Be My Valentine

To all of Allpoetry. A Valentines from me to you.
Photobucket



~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~



Valentine's day has always been pretty much a bummer day for me. I have never celebrated it, or for that matter had anyone to celebrate it with. So I decided this year to celebrate it with my true love... Allpoetry, and all the wonderful poets on this site who have befriended me and give me a reason to write and be part of something creative. This is my valentine's tribute to Allpoetry.



~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~


Let's start this tribute off right with a few love poems by the masters. I am speaking of course of the poets on Oldpoetry

i carry your heart with me(i carry it in
my heart)i am never without it(anywhere
by e e cummings 16 lines, 25 comments
 


Because of you, in gardens of blossoming
Flowers I ache from the perfumes of spring.
by Pablo Neruda 27 lines, 17 comments



She walks in Beauty, like the night
    Of cloudless climes and starry skies;
by Lord George Gordon Byron 0 lines, 21 comments



My mistress' eyes are nothing like the sun;
Coral is far more red than her lips' red:
by William Shakespeare 26 lines, 7 comments



~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~


And of course no tribute would be complete without a show case of some of our very own poets. Here are but a few:



Glistening cool loneiness
Icy memories long gone
by ennovy, 19 lines.



At the depth of soul
I entered into you
by Thoreau47, 16 lines.



You are to me...
my fondest living dream
by Endeavor, 44 lines.



~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
 


And finally a few of my love poems, I gladly share with you all. Though they are no where near your works I strive to learn and grow as we all do here in our little community.



Find the quiet time of your day to seek council with your spirit
by lileaglefeatherprcs, 14 lines.



Goodnight, Goodnight
parting is such sweet sorrow
by lileaglefeatherprcs, 25 lines.




Lights up the darkness in your soul
by lileaglefeatherprcs, 7 lines.
