  4. ║   One day of every month, of every year, holds something special for    ║
  5. ║   someone somewhere.  For me, that day is the 14th of February, "St.    ║
  6. ║   Valentine's Day" effectionally known, simply as                       ║

  8. ║                          "Valentine's Day"!                             ║

  10. ║    On the 14th of this month LOVE will be overflowing everywhere!       ║
  11. ║                                                                         ║
  12. ║   Roses will flower, hearts will be drawn, candy will be sent, and of   ║
  13. ║   course, the POET will put pen to paper and write that special love    ║
  14. ║   poem!                                                                 ║
  15. ║                                                                         ║
  16. ║   For this poet, nothing is mightier than the simple words,             ║
  17. ║                                                                         ║
  18. ║                             "I LOVE YOU"!                               ║
  19. ║                                                                         ║
  20. ║   These simple three words, throughout all time, have caused countries  ║
  21. ║   to go to battle, toppled kingdoms and created new ones.  The simple   ║
  22. ║   saying of "I love you", or the lack thereof, have started and ended   ║
  23. ║   relationships worldwide, be it true or false.                         ║

  29. ║         │  The lack thereof can bring sorrow and strife.         │      ║
  30. ║         │  The saying, "I love you" is willingly heard;          │      ║
  31. ║         │  The lack thereof can feel quite absurd.               │      ║
  32. ║         │  The saying, "I love you" we all want to hear;         │      ║
  33. ║         │  The lack thereof can be hard to bear.                 │      ║
