An Unexpected Valentine
While baking a cake the other day
I discovered a treat along the way
On a tiny yellowed paper, I had to look
Though hidden deep within my recipe book
Soon the tears streamed down my face
As I remembered the specific time and place
My sweet daughter at the table, crayon in hand
Her laughing and saying time and again
Mommy I love you, will you please be mine
And I kissed her head and said, all the time
This yellowed paper with a heart with a smile
Has traveled down many roads and many miles
Although the years have slipped past too fast
The sentiment remains, and I love you lasts
