Inhonor of that one day where five guys will give each other that one look while combing through a messy pile at Hallmark, here is my latest poem.  Enjoy!!!

That Day

How easily you forgot
March 29^th
Middle of day.

An hour spent doing us
It was the best
I heard you say.

Then there was October 5^th
Sands of Guyana
Where we laid.

Didn’t I show you my love?
Why is it now
That those thoughts fade?

So much done throughout the year
Yet on this day
You focus hard

Judging everything we are
All because I
Forwent a card.

Or a gift to show you what,
Is on display
Each day, each year.

I wouldn’t be by your side
If my whole heart
Did not hold ‘care.’

Remember June 29^th
When I had said
You were the one.

There was love behind those words
And since that time,
Ive felt, I won.

Three hundred and sixty five,
Those are the days
My love should count.

Not by actions of one day,
When all my ‘love’
Was on discount.
