I knew we would meet,
When I was a young girl,
I dreamt you into being,
And now life’s a whirl.
My darling, me dearest,
My one, my all,
You are the man,
My heart did call.
On this glorious day,
I celebrate my lover,
Sending an anonymous card,
Receiving flowers undercover.
We both look puzzled,
Who are our secret admirers?
I'll tell you, if you tell me,
Water now! Put out the fires.
Let’s do now, what we do best,
Go to the room down the hall,
Where we normally rest,
And drive each other up the wall.
Our breathing is labored,
We stop for a rest,
Being together,
Is ultimately the best.
I love you my darling,
Giving thanks for you each day,
For the spirit living within you,
Is extraordinary in every way.
To us Valentine is each minute,
I love you and you love me,
Holding each other every night,
That’s how we should always be.

So Loving
Eric is what we all want. I wrote a list of the man I want, and tucked it in a wooden box. I truly believe when we are least looking, that special person will walk into your life. Your poem says this in such a romantic way!

As it should be, but then, young love, and all that...
The trick is to have the same to say after twenty years, thirty, forty, fifty...

Warm and sweet
This is very romantic, Petra! How wonderful for you to have these feelings and such happiness.
The poem is lovely, except a little slip in line 5 my-me.
Blessings to you both, and good luck in the contest.
