This morning I met St.Valentine
Sad, sullen and in deep pain.
‘Cheer-up man! It is your day today’- I said
‘Gifts, goodies and cards -all in your name made!’
He wailed loudly
‘Puppy love, passionate cards and crazy gifts
Not lasting families, but dressed up dates
No love, no man, no wife, just party mates’
‘Oh tell me, tell me’ –He cried
‘Has reason been lost in my name?
Has love been diluted in my name?
Has purity been put to shame in my name?’
I shook my head and walked away.
How was I to console him anyway?
