Happy Valentines Day everyone! Often I feel uncomfortable telling people this because some people are very sensitive about the celebration of Valentine's Day. As far as I can tell, these people fall in to two categories: those who are single and dislike Valentine's day because is either useless or painful, and those who condemn Valentine's Day since it is a "holiday" created by business to stimulate business in a slow month. Either way, I don't want to be lectured by either of these people so I usually keep my Valentine's Day wishes to myself, in spite of my excitement over the availability of Necco conversation hearts.
And I am writing today's limerick for those people to the rest of us, as an offering of peace.
To those who celebrate Valentine's Day
With a meal, a nice card, or bouquet,
Be aware there are those
Who decide to oppose
And reject what they think is cliche.
