Dear Saint V

Some get chocolates or flowers,
Some get candies or cards,
Others find a way through the hours,
And choose their heart to guard.

But, on this sweetest day,
I reflect on love worldwide,
And hope that there is a way
To somehow unite the divide.

And so to Saint V, I render these requests,
Hoping he can lend the tools from his loving treasure chest.

Abate our worldly sorrows,
Let our collective love shine.
Bring us to our knees with hope,
Replace despair with the divine.

And when today winds down and the next morrow comes,
Remind us of our mission, our mission to love as one.
