In honor of Valentine’s day and every day, this Universal Love note came through me, for you!
Will you be my Valentine?
The waiting
in your classroom
at your desk
while Folding laundry
For those you love,
to love you back
packaged in
kisses, chocolate, stuffies, steak, Fruitloop necklaces, shiny things:
A sign,
a hope
You. Are. OK.
Despite,
well,
Everything you feel and know
to the contrary.
Did you know?
You are
Loved
So deeply
So greatly
So completely.
Not Despite the
aging,
grief,
failures:
the parts you hide,
but
because.
You are
Loved
Completely.
It’s the
Sun
Kissing
Your face.
Breath
Filling
Your belly.
Voice
Rising,
tasting
the world.
Your head,
your hand
on your heart.
There!!!
Can you feel it?
Each beat,
The Universe’s
Public declaration
on bended knee with
kisses, chocolate, stuffies, steak, Fruitloop necklaces, shiny things:
I love you. Will you be my valentine?
