My Valentine
written by: Aparna Reddy
@AR_Midnighthues
Love
I find
abundant
in the isles
of Lucky store
Mylar balloons
Red
and Pink
in bunches
glistening
Roses
long stemmed
by dozens
in red
stacked
Sweet
candied lips
like a
Cupid’s bow
Sigh!
Love notes
and
sweethearts
Heart
I am lost
where do I
find you?
Carved
decadent
chocolate cake,
my valentine.

Aparna Reddy is an educator and poet, based in California, USA. Writing poetry is her hobby and she enjoys writing in verse anything that touches her heart. As a busy professional and mother, writing poetry has helped her in meditating and relaxing. She believes reading and writing poetry is cathartic. She thinks contemplation is a great exercise for the mind: It connects the intangible mind with the tangible outside world. This connection, if genuine can produce great insights about our lives and the world around us. Some of her poems have been published in online literary magazines such as Muse India and Spillwords Press.
