A steady presence, a friend so dear.
In life’s big moments and those small,
You’ve stood by me through it all.

Grateful and blessed to call you my friend. -

A Funny Valentine for a Friend
Poet: Catherine Pulsifer
Roses are red, violets are blue,
You’re my best friend, and slightly cuckoo.
Chocolate and flowers, they’re not my thing,
But laughter with you makes my heart sing.
You know all my quirks, the good and the bad,
Yet you still stick around – are you mad?
On this Valentine’s Day, no romance, it’s true,
Just jokes and some snacks shared between me and you.
So here’s to the giggles, the laughs, and the fun,
With a friend like you, I feel like I’ve won.
Cupid can keep his arrows and charm,
Because with you by my side, there’s no cause for alarm! -
A Day of Fun
Poet: Catherine Pulsifer

No cards we will not send.
Let's have laughter and silly jokes
A time for fun with you, my friend!

There are various ways we can greet.
Smiles, hugs, and more from heart to soul,
Oh, a day that will be sweet.
Celebrate our friendship, may it never go away,
And make way for a great Valentines Day!
Friends like you make life great
Happy Valentines Day, I say! -
A Hectic Day
Poet: Catherine Pulsifer
My day has been hectic, and the time I lack,
So I thought I'd send a text instead of a card, how's that!
For Valentine's Day, I wanted to spread a smile
Nothing rude or smutty, nothing juvenile.
On this special occasion, I have a few words
To take you through the day and onwards,
Happy Valentine's Day let your smile be seen
From your friend who is keen! -

I treasure our friendship more every day. -
