Memories are made of this: You would remember that box of chocolates for Valentine's Day. Did you keep the box? We don't celebrate Saint's Day. America seems to have something to celebrate every day! Nicely done, and good luck in the contest.

I am always grateful when I get such nice reviews of this. Thank you. I did not keep the box. It has been so many years. It would've gotten lost with several times of moving.

I love candy, even with a mouth infected: can't stop eating these delights. Enjoy your candy and those treasured sentiments prevailing its gift to you. A special moment between parties.

This is a nice 5-7-5 poem for the Valentine contest. Your words describe the gifts, but leave the sentimentality to the mind of the reader. I'm glad you have wonderful memories of your marriage. Blessings, and best wishes in the contest. Carol

When I was living in New Mexico, I had a number of roses in my garden. I always made sure that during the week of Valentine that I always trim those roses back for spring because that was when they said was the best time to trim them. Thank you so much for reviewing my work. I appreciate it very much.

He must have been a great guy, as you've explained many times, and you must miss him terribly, I'm so, so fortunate to still have my dear spouse, otherwise I might become reclusive, well done, blessings Roy

I loved it when Valentine's Day came and I could express my love with candy and flowers. You are fortunate to have had a husband who did the same. I hope this Valentine's Day finds you richly blessed as well.
