Valentine greetings have been popular since the Middle Ages, a time when prospective lovers said or sang their romantic verses. Written valentines began to appear after 1400. Paper valentines originated in the 1500s, being exchanged in Europe and being given in place of valentine gifts and oral or musical valentine greetings. They were particularly popular in England. The first written valentine (formerly known as "poetical or amorous addresses") is traditionally attributed to the imprisoned Charles, Duke of Orleans, in 1415. While confined in the Tower of London after the Battle of Agincourt, the young Duke reportedly passed his time by writing romantic verses for his wife in France. Approximately sixty of the Duke's poems remain and can be seen among the royal papers in the British Museum. They are credited with being the first modern day valentines.
Happy Valentine's Day, Everyone.

Hi Amy! Thank you for all the lovely Valentine posts and poems! I've looked at several but have not had time to spend here (though I did sneak some time).
Looking forward to finishing some work and coming back here!

What Day Did You Say?
So Valentines Day has come around,
He sticks his head out of the ground,
He sniffs the air and puzzled, stares,
Curious odors have filled the airs.
He smells the chocolate, and the nut,
He smells the roses, all this, but,
Theres something not quite right about,
This time of year to venture out.
He knows that Spring has not sprung yet,
And he wont risk this unsure bet,
These early days are short on numbers,
So why should he disturb his slumbers?
He finds a useful prize to shove,
Out to his mate to prove his love,
Then, thinking that hes done his part,
He rests his unromantic heart.
