If you would like a change from sending a card to your loved one on St. Valentine's Day why not write a love poem or make a copy of one of the many wonderful romantic love poems and have it framed as a permanent testament of your loving feelings to sweethearts, husbands, wives, family and friends.  The Poem can be read repeatedly making every day St. Valentine's Day!

You could also think about learning and memorising the lines yourself and make St Valentine's really special by reciting the poem aloud to your loved one over St Valentine's Day dinner. This would be a thrilling departure from normal conversation and take you both into a fantasy romantic world. It will cost very little other than your time and will create a permanent effect and romantic point of reference for the rest of your life together. Every time either of you hears or reads the words of that poem, there will be an immediate romantic association

St Valentine's Day Love Poems come in many shapes and sizes and there are hundreds to suit all personalities. If you are the romantic type, you can have a wonderful time browsing through Shakespeare's sonnets or the many wonderful Poems by poets such as Emily Dickinson, Elizabeth Barret Browning, Robert Burns, Sir Walter Raleigh, Edgar Allen Poe, Percy Bysse Shelley, John Keats or Lord Byron to name but a few.

You could chose one of the better know romantic poems. A few excerpts below may give you some ideas.

Elizabeth Barret Browing's 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.

Oscar Wilde's HER VOICE

The wild bee reels from bough to bough 
With his furry coat and his gauzy wing, 
Now in a lily-cup, and now 
Setting a jacinth bell a-swing,
In his wandering; 
Sit closer love: it was here I trow
I made that vow, 
Swore that two lives should be like one
As long as the sea-gull loved the sea, 
As long as the sunflower sought the sun,-
It shall be, I said, for eternity 
'Twixt you and me! 

Rupert Brooke's THE GREAT LOVER
I have been so great a lover: filled my days
So proudly with the splendour of Love's praise,
The pain, the calm, and the astonishment,
Desire illimitable, and silent content,
And all dear names men use, to cheat despair,
For the perplexed and viewless streams that bear
Our hearts at random down the dark of life

However, St Valentine's Day Love Poems do not have to be romantic - they can be short funny verses. Here are a few which might appeal to you if you prefer a less romantic approach.

Roses are Red,
Violets are Blue
It's Valentines Day
and I love you

 

My love is like a cabbage

Divided into two

The leaves I give to others, the heart I give to you

Valentines are stupid

Valentines are dumb, so why do we get upset if no one sends us one!

I hope the idea of a St Valentine's Day Love Poem will give you food for thought.
