Lovers’ Day! What to say? It was a special day today.
School was fine, I didn't whine, Though I had no valentine.
I didn't care, Honest, I swear, All my sweetest friends were there.
They gave me treats, Too many sweets, Nothing else quite competes.
Lunchtime came, Was pretty lame, The shift I had was not the same.
I sat alone, A different tone, The voice I heard, I've always known.
Brian Will, It shocks me still, He grew up with a poet’s skill.
He’s amazing, No exaggerating, This guy is quite intimidating.
He hoped to see me Tomorrow evening At tomorrow’s "Coffee House" poetry reading.
I said no To if I might go, He said “wrong answer”, (you’d better show).
I said okay, He walked away And hoped I had a good rest of the day.
Off the bus, To home I rushed, To sit around and do nothing much.
Quarter til four, Still nothing more, Til someone came knocking on the door.
Sly and slick, I knew quite quick, It was none other than my best friend Nick.
Went out of his way, Drove to say “Hey” In a St. Patty’s shirt on Valentine’s day.
What a friend of mine, Best guy of all time, He gave me a flower: “your valentine”.
