Happy I Heart You Day

Stormy weather doesn't inspire
Outside wind gusts chill you to the bone
Inside huddled by the crackling fire

Remembering times gone past
Gathered around the fireplace
Sometimes only memories last

Good times to look at in review
to feel like a clown, or really down
easy to be depressed and blue

Hot chocolate to drive away the chill
Mini marshmallows on top
Reminding everyone not to spill

"Happy valentines" said with a grin
The sight of all that is to come
The togetherness we feel within

Come along with me,
then, my heart lifts....
The best is yet to be

Life, as I grow older,
Grows dearer, bolder
This Love doth smolder

The memories will still be there
as I remember your eyes
Your soft long fiery hair

The touch the smell
Takes me to a place far away
Puts me under your spell

we look back on all that we had
both smile and cuddle,
life's not all that bad

the wind continues to blow
the fire still crackling
They say more snow
