VALENTINES DAY WITH LEMN SISSAY

Not really! But Lemn Sissay has a wonderful poem on his website called ‘Invisible Kisses’, and ‘tis just great for today.
One of the verses goes like this:

If there was ever one
Who when you achieve
Was there before the dream
And even then believed;
Who would clear the air
When it's full of loss;
Who would count love
Before the cost.

You can read the whole poem HERE on his website.

(and I did get a huge bouquet of pink and white roses this morning, and a card that said I make my husband swoon… go figure.)

Oh V, that poem is one of my all time favourites. The best love poem ever. I love the way the rhythm changes in the last two stanzas like those early heady days of love. Fabulous.
