make a smile appear,A heart-shaped card filled
with kind words,Sent from someone who's dear.A
friend or even a relative,Who takes the time to
say,I like you just because you're you.That's
what is done this day.

4THE LEGEND OF THE VALENTINE... The legend says
St. ValentineWas in a prison cellThinking of
his little flockHe had always loved so wellAnd
wanting to assure themOf his friendship and his
loveHe picked a bunch of violetsAnd sent them
by a dove.
5And on the violets' leavesHe pierced these lines
divineThat simply said, "I Love You"And "I'm
your Valentine"So through the years that
followedFrom that day unto thisFolks still send
messages of loveAnd seal them with a kiss.
6Because a Saint in prisonReached through prison
bars one dayAnd picked a bunch of violetsAnd
sent them out to sayThat faith and love can
triumphNo matter where you areFor faith and
love are greaterThan the strongest prison bar.

11IS MY VALENTINE AT THE ZOO Valentine, valentine,
who will you be?A yawning sloth that hangs from
a tree, or aLong-legged giraffe with big brown
eyes,Elusive elephant of enormous
size,Nattering parrot or yackety yak,Thirsty
camel with a hump on his back,Itching monkey,
bumbling old bear,Nosy narwhale, or panda
rare,Earnest emu who cannot fly,'Smallest
chickadee in the sky, or Dandy kangaroo who
bounds so high?All of these animals in the
zooYearn to be mine...but I'd rather have you!
12MY TWO VALENTINES I have two lovely
valentineseach day of every year - a smiling
lass, a smiling ladwhom I hold very dear.Their
little hearts hold so much loveand sing with joy
untoldand I am richer than a kingwith love
worth more than gold.They kiss me and they hug
meand climb upon my kneeit's good to just be
livingin their happy company.
13We share so many hoursof fun and secrets,
tooit isn't any wonderthat I love them like I
do.Their laughter and their smiles,the twinkle
in their eyesmake every day I share with thema
wonderful surprise.Candy, cards, or flowerscan
make a person glad,but I am truly blessed,
indeed,with my smiling lass and lad.
14STEADY LIKE A ROCKLove so steady, love so
fine,Be my Valentine and I'll be thine.If we
love each other, rain or shine,We'll be rockin'
hand in handAt a hundred and ninety-nine.
15A MIRACLE CALLED LOVE. A miracle called love
dwells within the heart,You don't know how it
happens,Or when it gets it's start. But the
happiness it brings youAlways give a joyful
lift,You realize that love,Is God's most
precious gift...
16SPEAK OF LOVE. When someone speaks of love,They
have a smile on their face. When someone speaks
of love,They think of a very special place.
When someone speaks of love,It is done with
fondness. When someone speaks of love,It is done
in kindness. When someone speaks of love,It is
not with dismay. Won't you! speak of love,and
Brighten someones day.

heartGreen beans string along.You're such a
cute tomato,Will you peas to me belong?You've
been the apple of my eye,You know how much I
careSo lettuce get together,We'd make a
perfect pear.
18Now, something's sure to turnipto prove you
can't be beetSo, if you carrot all for melet's
let our tulips meet.Don't squash my hopes and
dreams now,Bee my honey, dearOr tears will
fill potato's eyes,While sweet corn lends an
ear.

parsley mine.I'll work and share my celery,So
be my valentine.

30I found it today in a box put awaywith letters
faded and brownwith a fan and a bow from the
long agoa flower and a blue silken gown. Not a
treasure of art.Just a wreath with a heart,and
a verse on a rose-bordered page.A bit of the
past that went by too fast.A valentine yellowed
with age.
31With a sigh and a smile, I held it awhilefrom
the dark of its scented retreat.Those days were
fair - those hours so rare.The first love of
youth is so sweet. I found it today. Put it
gently away,and remembered the day that it
came.I bent lightly to press one more
caresswhere my love had written his name.
32I'd like to hang a ValentineUpon the world's
front doorWith hearts of love and peace
entwinedTo last forevermore. With love to guide
our daily path,There would be no one in
needGod's blessings would be shared by allOf
every race and creed.
33Peace would come to all the worldAs nations
great and smallWould put aside their selfish
aimsTo work for the good of all If I could have
my wish today,I'd wish for nothing moreThan to
hang a great big ValentineUpon our world's front
door!
