My St. Valentine’s Day Advice [Part 1 of My Valentine's Day Trilogy]
A poem by Chrome Dome Mike Kimbro
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
