Valentines from Grandma

I sent my love a valentine for this special day,

A gesture just from me with what I want to say.

Visits seem so far between and calling just won’t do,

Surely this surprise will be a treasure sweet and true.

I sent my love a valentine with hearts and clever verse,

A perky little valentine designed for children first;

Love and joy and scattered art devoted just for kids,

A friendly little note of love that grandmas love to give;

I sent my love a valentine miles and miles away,

A day or two or maybe three will get it there okay,

Candy money tucked inside and blessed with love galore,

A message for my grand-babies to say, whom I adore;

I sent my love a valentine to brighten up their week,

To show them that I love them, they simply are too sweet,

I sent a special valentine with many thoughts to nurture,

For any act of kindness brings memories for the future.
