Remember how we talked all night,
your folks had gone away,
We rambled through the deep dark times,
back to the light of day.
I still want you.
Remember when your foot got caught,
in the hay rig,made me cry,
How i held you in the ambulance,
But i never told you why.
I still need you.
Remember at the senior prom,
laughed so much we couldn't stop crying,
How you comforted me in the fall that year,
when i found out mom was dying.
I still remember.
Remember the honeymoon by candlelight,
a power-outage due to storms
and the first born, trying to register him
getting tangled up with forms.
I still have that pen.
Remember all the bad times we had,
how we struggled yet still pulled through,
I can't remember the bad times,
All i can remember is you.
I still adore you.
Remember I said i would never leave you,
I'd still be here at the end of the line,
It's been fifty years now and counting,
But your still my only valentine.
I always will.
QUOTE :- The rainbows you can see are the reflection of my tears,
but they're happy ones, my valentine for years.

I thought this was pretty good... I liked the non-rhyming lines in-between, they really added something to the poem. Good job and thank you for entering my contest.

This is so true... It brings back memories of mine, I don't know if that's a good thing or a bad, I'll let you know. Nicely written though.

My breathe was taken away by this write, it truly is beautiful. Each line drew me in further wanting to know what hapened next and how does it end wowee I loved this.

very nice
The separated lines are very effective. This poem gave me the feeling that the one you are writing to has passed...I wonder if I am accurate. To be somewhat critical, the first part of the poem seems more personal and image filled, the latter not so much so. Overall a very good piece. Nice job

OMG...excellent...good luck....

This is fitting for Hallmark for sure.
The only thing is the actual number 50 years
would not work for card companies. All and all
lovely valentines day poem.
