It was a special Valentine’s Day,

the perfect time to celebrate.

He came bearing several gifts,

ready for an unforgettable date.

She opened a heart-shaped card,

their special song started to play.

She smiled and closed her eyes,

to the music she began to sway.

She opened a heart-shaped box,

saw her favorite chocolate treat.

Candy wrapped in shiny red foil,

truffles soft, yummy and sweet.

She opened a rectangular box,

a radiant smile lit up her face.

Inside was a bouquet of red roses,

ready to be put into a tall vase.

She opened a small jewelry box,

found a surprise nestled inside.

A diamond ring sparkling bright,

tears of sheer happiness she cried.

He took her to a romantic restaurant,

they dined by soft candlelight.

After returning to her apartment,

she invited him to stay the night.
