Dear Subscriber:
Each week we examine a theme from a variety of points of
view. The theme for this week is Valentine’s Day, which is celebrated on
February 14.
I welcome comments on my poems at

A Valentine’s Day poem about love as heaven:
How simple to be happy here in
heaven!
After all, one
doesn't want for much.
Passion finds its
willing partner, ever
Pleased to please
with a deft and tender touch.
Yearning is like
walking through a valley
Veiled in the
loveliness of flowers.
All the beauty of
the earth can only
Lead us to the edge
of what is ours.
Etched into our love
there is a message,
Not of now but of
all time and place,
Telling of a truth
beyond the passage
In which we move
from mystery to grace.
Nor are there signs
that such content can be
Except my love for
you, and yours for me.
