Lainie, it's when you least expect it or don't look for it, that sometimes true love comes.

I have walked in your shoes and know the feeling you have, but maybe one day you will be lucky and meet that soulmate, best friend and lover.

Just don't be fooled by imposters as I was lol

Hi
A Happy Valentine's To Everyone x

Robert Burns

My Love Is Like A Red Red Rose

Oh, my love is like a red, red rose
That's newly sprung in June
Oh, my love is like a melody
That's sweetly played in tune
As fair art thou, my bonnie lass,
So deep in love am I
And I will love thee still, my dear,
Till all the seas gang dry.
Till all the seas gang dry, my dear,
Till all the seas gang dry
And I will love thee still, my dear,
Till all the seas gang dry.
'Til all the seas gang dry my, my dear
And the rocks melt with the sun
And I will love thee still, my dear
While the sands of life shall run
But faretheewell, my only love
Oh, faretheewell a while
And I will come again, my love
Tho' 't were ten thousand mile
Tho' 't were ten thousand mile, my love
Tho' 't were ten thousand mile
And I will come again, my love
Tho' 't were ten thousand mile.

Happy Valentine's Day folks.

Anyone playing Father Valentine to their youngsters?

I used to love it when I was small and did it for my son for years, till he cottoned on lol A bit hard to do when you are a single parent, trying to leave something on the doorstep and ring the bell but be inside at the same time lol

Beautiful,Elizabeth,and a Happy Valentine's day to you also!

That message seems to embody the wider appeal of Valentine's day,which is refreshing.Now it seems to have got lost in an era of expensive cards, flowers,chocolates,teddy bears,lingerie and commercial gift-giving,and soppy notices of undying love in the papers.

(Maybe I'm just cross because I didn't get anything from my OH LOL...)

Dear All

Hello

Love means different things to people but the essence of the day remains the same, showing the people in your life that you care and appreciate them.

May the magic of St Valentines Day be yours.

This is one of the great love poems:

How do I love thee? Let me count the ways.
I love thee to the depth and breadth and height
My soul can reach, when feeling out of sight
For the ends of Being and ideal Grace

I love thee to the level of everyday's
Most quiet need, by sun and candle-light.

I love thee freely, as men strive for Right;
I love thee purely, as they turn from Praise.
I love thee with the passion put to use.

In my old griefs, and with my childhood's faith.
I love thee with a love I seemed to lose

With my lost saints - I love thee with the breath,
Smiles, tears, of all my life! and, if God choose,
I shall but love thee better after death.

Elizabeth Barratt Browning
1806 - 1861

Take care all
Very best wishes
