I am a writer I am a poet. Words are my stock in trade. Syllables have tripped from my tongue. Sentences have rushed to form phrases. Phrases have hurried to build paragraphs. Paragraphs spilled over page after page. I have a dictionary. I have a thesaurus. I have encyclopedias. Multiply all by x. Why are words not coming to my aid? This, if ever, is the day.. Love waits to be expressed! Gratitude! Respect! Multiply to the nth. Do it again. Read my heart, okay? Take soul-to-soul up a rung. At the top of the graph, draw a daisy. Pull off the petals one by one. I love you will win the day. Lean close, find a heart with lace and a faint but very much there Picture a skyful of pinwheels and Roman candles exploding while a symphony plays. You make writers stop writing. You make orators stammer. Happy Valentine's Day! Pea (c) Phyllis Jean Green, 2008

This is unique and intriguing. The silence speaks loudly of the day for love! You may have been struck dumb at first, but you certainly found the right words to complete this valentine muse.
