On this day before the day before Valentines Day

This is my Valentine's Day gift to my boyfriend, Tim.

Roses are red, Violets are blue
I'm 5'3 and You're 6'2
thanks for the kisses, the hugs, and the holds
thanks for the squeezes you give when I'm cold

Here's to the first Valentine's Day we will share
not on the 14th but the 12th day in FĂ©vrier

Here's to the memories I hope you will keep
so near to your heart, down, inside, deep

And last here's this poem, I penned just for you
 So try to be nice, I struggled straight trough

I stumbled on meter, on rhythm, and prose
but it came from the heart, and I know that it knows
what's said best, on paper or verse
what comes out these lips, all pink with slight purse

Happiest of all women that is to say,
I couldn't be luckier this valentine's day
