A V-Day Poem, Belated

A close friend’s spouse each year would buy

A gorgeous heart-shaped box

Of chocolates meant for Valentine’s,

Not so unorthodox.

 

Except he made his purchase

For this most romantic day

On the 15th of the month,

When what was left out on display…

 

Were the candy hearts marked down in price –

Half-off! A big big sale!

My friend just laughed, but many

Thought it quite beyond the pale.

 

So here I am, my V-Day poem

A day too late for many,

But written in the spirit

Of my friend’s ex-husband Kenny.
