Valentine's Day

Almost every poem here was once at over a page-length, but has been pared down on every pass to speak to its individual essence only.

Valentine’s Day is a personal musing on variable aspects of love as experienced and observed. I believe the subject is worth exploring as it appears (to me) that love is in constant manifestation around each of us, subtly encouraging our participation.

There remains much in my life to be grateful for, and much in this infinite emotion to contemplate despite life’s parade of challenges.

After listening, I’m asking all of the listeners to still themselves and recount their own experiences and the role of love in and around their lives.
