St Charles? .
St Valentine!
the Saint of love
makes me wonder why
surely he was celibate
and not that kind of guy
I'd rather see somebody there
who had a hundred kids
or at least could sing about it
like Barry White once did
or some romatic poet
who had given everything
I'll put my name down on the list
and step into the ring
you could make love on my birthday
it's a more convienent time
June the second's warmer
than the date of Valentine
then children would be born in March
the breaking of the Spring
and not in dark November
when the birds don't even sing
and my surnames more romantic
an anagram of note
if you rearrange the letters
you will see it's Romeo
but now I'll leave it up to you
to have a little think
is Valentine romantic?
or am I just wasting ink? .
