FOR YOUNG READERS

St. Valentine’s Day

Valentine’s Day

Valentines, valentines
Red, white and blue
I’ll make a nice one
And send it to you.

Valentine’s Day

If I could be the postman
For just one single time,
I’d choose to carry Valentines
So lovely and so fine.
I would not mind the heavy load,
Or mind my tired feet.
If I could scatter happiness
All up and down the street.

Three Valentines

(tune: “Mary Had a Little Lamb”)

Three valentines I have for you,
Have for you, have for you,
Three valentines I have for you,
Pink and red and blue.
I’ll put them in the mail for you,
Mail for you, mail for you,
I’ll put them in the mail for you,
Pink and red and blue.

Heart

(tune: BINGO)

To show you like your special friend,
Just give them each a heart,
H. E. A. R. T,
H. E. A. R. T,
H. E. A. R. T,
Each heart says I like you.

A Valentine

Frost flowers on the window glass,
Hopping chickadees that pass,
Bare old elms that bend and sway,
Pussywillows soft and gray.
Silver clouds across the sky,
Lacy snowflakes flitting by,
Icicles like fringe in line
That is outdoor’s Valentine.

For Valentine’s Day

Out of a snow cloud, cold and gray,
Something dropped on St. Valentine’s Day,
Whirling and twirling and soft and light,
Like wee little letters all dainty and white,
And I guess the sky children were sending down,
This Valentine straight to the children in town.

Valentine’s Day Song

(tune: Mary Had a Little Lamb)

You’re a special friend of mine,
Friend of mine, friend of mine,
You’re a special friend of mine,
Be my Valentine.

Counting Valentines

Valentines, valentines, how many do I see?
Valentines, valentines, count them with me.
I have red ones, orange ones, yellow ones, too.
I have green ones, purple ones, and some that are blue.
Valentines, valentines, how many do I see?
Count them with me!
1-2-3-4-5...

Valentine Verses

Now St. Valentine is here.
We greet his birthday with a cheer.
For happiness from friend to friend
Flies with the Valentines we send.

Today as Valentines go out
To people near and far,
This one I’m sending right to you
To say how nice you are.

To My Valentine

If apples were pears
And peaches were plums
And the rose had a different name.
If tigers were bears
And fingers were thumbs
I’d love you just the same.

Valentine so bright and gay,
I am sending out today.
With the message, “I love you,”
Hoping that you love me, too.

Five Little Valentines

Five little valentines were having a race
The first little valentine was frilly with lace.
The second little valentine had a funny face.
The third little valentine said,  “I love you”.
The fourth little valentine said,  “I do, too”.
The fifth little valentine was sly as a fox.
He ran the fastest to the Valentine box.

* * *

To each and every friend of mine
I’ll send a lovely valentine.
Mom, Dad, Sis, and Brother, too.
Will receive a heart that says,
“I love you.”

Love is a Circle

Love is a circle,
Round and round,
Love goes up,
And love comes down,
Love is on the inside,
Trying to get out,
Love is whirling and twirling  about!
