St. Valentine’s DaySt. Valentine’s Day

St. Valentines DaySt. Valentines DayI have a little valentine

That someone sent to me.

It’s pink and white

And red and blue

And pretty as can be.

Forget-me-nots

Are round the edge

And tiny roses, too; and

Such a lovely piece of lace

The very palest blue.

And in the centre

There’s a heart

As red as red can be!

And on it’s written

All in gold ‘To you

With love from me’.
