Crimson roses
fail to bloom
it's cold in February
and chocolate can be bitter
when love is denied
like an unopened
valentine

Valentines day bites

well done Poetess Cat...so much said in so few perfect words. Love the sarcasm of the title and the tie in of chocolates.

You speak to me in riddles and you speak to me in rhymes.

You know I love brevity, especially when the message is this powerful. I wish this wasn't such a sad time of year for you. Holidays seems to be like a magnifying glass on loneliness. Here's hoping all you desire soon finds you, Sandra.

catalinamoon - this is sad, but so well describes your thoughts. Sometimes it takes a while to be happy, I'm not sure...

yes, it is sad, but it is also you and you share and that's what is important, Sandra.

Sandra...this is lovely, but I'll take my chocolate bitter, rather than no chocolate at all...and I'll take my valentines unopened because I can always open them myself.

add sugar my sweet
