Happy Valentine's Day (2 of 3)

 

Happy Valentine’s Day!

(a Heart-passion limerick rhyme 2-14-2024)

 

Yon Whisper-wind cadenced-rhyme thumps in me heart

Independent-Individuals put the horse-before-the-cart

Roses and chocolates sing sweet-nothings kiss-favor

Satiate a Love-appetite complete in nectar-sugar savor

A Love-poem passion-fashion is a sweetness form-of-art

 

Amen!

 

Happy Valentine’s Day!

 

 

Valentine! Every day! (2024)

 

As an infant, familial-Love showered me!

In childhood I learned to appreciate Love!

Teen years piqued emotion passion-fashion!

Young-adult stirred a special LOVE-appreciation!

Maturity experienced exceptional-understanding!

Love-circle completes a singular holy-sacred Blessing!

Individual! Personal! Private! A true value-Measure!

Holy! Sacred! Immaculate! Faultless virtue!-Treasure!

Emotional! Ethical! Singular! Pledge! Honor!-Pleasure!

Word-bond! Code-of-ethics! A moral-decent Love-Leisure!

Two-hearts! Single-Love! Fidelity! Promise! Appreciation!

Focus-Love!---Blossom-Life!...Celebrate a Peace-bouquet!

 

Dawn’s red-heart awakened me to my romantic-Love!

Beckoned-there a golden-glare sunrise embracing-care!

Mid-morn ancient-maple filigree-shade reflective-respite!

I live with thee just south of yonder high-noon sun glow!

Enjoy a cooling-treat ice-cream afternoon delight-sweet!

Violet-soft to purple-deep growing shadows obfuscated!

Comes then the nighttime dark quiet-savor dreamscape call!

Midnight-charm Fantasy emotion-swirl on Magic-unicorn!

Wee-hour cacophony-call to passion-celebrate join new-dawn!

 

My pledge to Valentine-Love thee every day---Faithful!…complete!

 

Amen!

 

Happy Valentine’s Day! Love! –Carl Edward

Happy Valentine’s Day! (-2024)
 
Me tender-heart sings “Love!” at yonder high sun noon
Whisper-wind sweet under an alabaster-pale full moon
 
Thee dared join-challenge unorthodox Wild-dreams
Supported conjured-demented impossible-schemes
 
On a Love-foundation to every adventure---“All-in”
To miss even a single event might be a mortal-sin
 
“Stick with me, kid!” We’ll Laugh and Love in a blend
Dance adventure-choreographed whatever they send
 
Make the Best of “it” absent defeated-complaint
’Tis easy enough with me sweet “Angel-Saint”
 
Celebrated Life-gift with focused-Love exemplar-free
With me soulmate as “one”: Lovely-lady Candice Leah!
 
An amorous lexicon-filled evident-secrets full-Measure!
A life-storehouse complete with sacred Trinity-Treasure!
Unique exploits! Rainbows! Butterflies! Unicorns! Pleasure!
 
And---in me simple=humble Fantasy of sacred-life Trinities:
Romantic-poetry readings in a Fox Lake rowboat!
A January 11^th blizzard loving-warmth first-kiss!
“2-as-1” for 60 years!---57!...Sanctioned-officially!
Our secret-sacred “understanding” winter-tree!
An impromptu outing-picnic at “The Spring”!
Day-trips to see-the-sites tenderly holding hands!
Prairies! Rivers! Mountains! Oceans! Travel-Wild!
Vacations! Cruises! Canada! Europe! U.S.! More!
Faith! Family! Freedom! Children! Grand! & Great!
Holding –hands watching refined-doves in quiet-Peace!
Dawn’s first pnk-blush morning golden-sunrise call!
Filigree maple respite mid-morn cooling shade!
High-sun noon to purple-eve midnight-delight!
Blue-white diamond wee-hour twinkle stars!
Together!---Thee! & Me!...Class-act! Candy! 1^st Class!
 
Me tender-heart sings “Love!” at yonder high sun noon
Whisper-wind sweet under an alabaster-pale full moon
Amen!
 
Happy Valentine’s Day! Love, Carl Edward

Best poker hand!? Hmm!

Poker! Yeah! 

The very "Best" hand absent "wild' cards? Royal-flush!

10-J-Q-K-A all of the same suit! Excellent! Wow! Rare!

With "wild" cards, 5-of-a-kind is possible~ Also, rare!

So? To Win, do you need a Royal-flush? No? Hmm!

"Life" is also a Game you can win absent a Royal-flush!

True!---You WIN by...participating in the "game"! Yeah!

Lots of winners leave the table without a Royal-flush!

Take the challenge!---Bet and bluff (negotiate)...to WIN!

Poker---is a fun game...Life is better and more rewarding!

In either game---you can't win...if ou don't play! Amen!

Go for it!---Give it a try!...You might draw a Royal-flush!

And---if not...You're still a BIG winner at the table!

Fear-not! & Follow-Me! (Jesus' admonition)

Deal 'em! Boys!---I'll take a hand!...I'm all-in!

Amen!

Bored! Lonely! & Afraid! Wow!

 Epidemic! Hmm!?

Sickness: Bored! Lonely! & Afraid! "Choices"!

Solution: Choose not to participate! Find: Peace!

Amen!
