"My Valentine's Day Advice" sets the rules for love making on February 14.

My St. Valentine’s Day Advice [Part 1 of My Valentine's Day Trilogy]

Consider reading along to my Spoken Verse Performance!

VERSE 1

In the second month, on the fourteenth day,

That’s when we honor St. Valentinus.

But if we were to ask for a blessing today,

I’m thinking he’d surely decline us.

VERSE 2

You see…

The ladies would like a little romance.

While the guys are singing: "Let’s get it on."

But in this poem I’ll give you a chance.

For compromise, between dusk and dawn.

CHORUS

So…

Buy your girl some chocolate covered cherries.

Then hand pick a fragrant bouquet.

But follow the lead of those missionaries,

When you celebrate Valentine’s Day.

VERSE 3

You’ll know that you’re in good with Cupid,

When your sweet thang gives you permission.

But while that archer’s young, he ain’t stupid.

Yeah, he knows all about the positions.

VERSE 4

So guys and gals, here’s the way to insure,

You're on pace for marital love monumental:

No Valentine’s Day ‘round the world’ tours!

Keep it face to face, parallel, and horizontal.

CHORUS

So…

Buy your girl some chocolate covered cherries.

Then hand pick a fragrant bouquet.

But follow the lead of those missionaries,

When you celebrate Valentine’s Day.

VERSE 5

Now some will think I sound like The Pope.

They feel such a law is unconstitutional.

To those I offer a few words of hope:

“At 12:01 it's back to business as usual.”

CHORUS

So…

Buy your girl some chocolate covered cherries.

Then hand pick a fragrant bouquet.

But follow the lead of those missionaries,

When you celebrate Valentine’s Day.

The End
