A Valentine with God
A day of sadness it turned out to be
Everyone got flowers today, but me
When I saw the flowers in their bouquet
I immediately turned to walk away
To hide until the day had been done
Away with my pain I started to run
I hurried the pace, but to my disgrace
Hey girl, no flowers for you in a vase?
The smile on my face was plastered and fake
I held the grin not a moment too late
Soon my face became burdened & sad
Feeling unloved, my heart hurt so bad
I wanted to leave my job with abandon
Held back my tears and sat empty-handed
I didn’t give in to pity and woe
But turned to remember something I know…
I remembered that God has a garden for me
More than my eyes are ready to see
With the vastness of colors, fully in bloom
And little buds budding, beginning to loom
The scent of each flower, a melodious fragrance
I dance in the garden, they all stand in cadence
Thank you, my Love, for all that you do
Happy Valentine’s Day from me untoYou.
