My Lovely Valentine

She's a lovely lady, yes she is, and she deserves better than the half-hearted attention I'm able to give at this point in our lives.  I keep waiting for things to slow down long enough for me to catch my breath, but it doesn't happen. That's the way it is, I suppose, when there's kids to be raised and jobs to be worked and overflowing schedules of activities.

But I can't stop thinking about her.  About us.  She has made my life so cozy and comfortable, and though it's important to dwell in the here and now, sometimes I dream about how things will be in the future.  My future with my lovely Valentine.

Old Man's Valentine
