WHY GO ALL OUT ON VALENTINE'S DAY, BUT NOT TODAY?

Wednesday, February 10, 2010

Hey fellows, why do we have to have a day like Valentine's Day to express our love for our wives?

What's wrong with expressing that love every day--including Valentine's Day

  TELL HER SO                                                    

Amid the cares of married strife
  In spite of toil and business life
If you value your dear wife--
  Tell her so!

When days are dark and deeply blue
  She has her troubles, same as you
Show her that your love is true
  Tell her so!

Don't act as if she's past her prime
  As tho' to please her were a crime
If ever you loved her, now's the time--
  Tell her so!

She'll return for each caress
  A hundred fold of tenderness,
Hearts like hers were made to bless;
  Tell her so!

You are hers and hers alone;
  Well you know she's all your own;
Don't wait to carve it on a stone--
  Tell her so!

Never let her heart grow cold
  Richer beauties will unfold
She is worth her weight in gold
  Tell her so!

Clif,
What a lovely poem - it just flows! My daughter said today why is it still called Happy Valentine' Day while Christmas is called "Happy Holidays?" Good question!

This is great, Clif!
I'm guessing it would be nice if this worked both ways.
Hmmm, I'm going to going to go "Tell him so" right now!

Great poem with a great message!
I am reading a new book called "Love & War" which is about marriage and it talks about this very topic.
