For Kaylor, at her request (February 2012)

February fourteenth...
What is so special about
February fourteenth?
I just can't figure it out.

Could it possibly be
     Our founding president's birthday?
     Or Punxsutawney's shadow day?
No, hmm... now let me see...

Wait, what's this by my bed?
Flowers! Bound in red and pink
And what's this, overhead?
Paper hearts! Hmm... let me think...

Why is everything pink?
     Oh, I wish I could remember...
     I'm about to lose my temper!
No, calm down... now think. THINK!

          Oh! Happy Valentine's Day, Kaylor!
          I knew I would remember!
