Valentine's Day 2024

I was thinking long and hard about this post, wether I should do something for Valentine's Day or not. I was leaning towards just letting the day slide and unnoticed go by, what could I possibly write about it... But then I came across a poem I wrote, and then a few more, and I thought "Oh, what the hell, there are no coincidences, I clearly need to do something with this."

So I did, and here it is, the Valentine's Day blog post... 

I took this photo in downtown Kitchener (Ontario, Canada) in 2022, because they were so adorable and I had recently finished a video that has an older couple in it. I felt like I was meant to see them, to see it is possible and that this kind of love exists.

The following is the video I had crafted that also inspired the poem I wrote to go with the photo...

The source of the poem/quote in the video is unknown to me, the photos and video clips was found using Google™ and © belongs to original creator of each one, the compilation was made by Annalogue75 © 2022.

As those of you that have followed me on social media know, my poems are all over the place and when it comes to love poems I tend to write about heart ache and heart break, simply because it's easy, popular, and relatable. But there are exceptions, and those poems paint a different picture - perhaps they're more inspired by real life - than the sappy majority. Poems like this one, inspired by a prompt and first published on Instagram™ in 2023:

The following poems are all nut two based on prompts, but as with all creative work there are parts of myself and my life present in these creations. It is however you and your life that shapes your interpretations, and don't mistake that for getting to know me or understand me, keep that in mind...

First out is a prompted fiery dare from 2023.

These two were written from free inspiration, no prompts used (2022).

Written with tongue-in-cheek humor from a prompt in 2023.

Another prompted creation from 2023.

And finally a prompted poem written with a wink and a smile (2023).

I'm going to leave any impressions and interpretations up to the reader, I already know what was on my mind and the deeper meaning. If you want more I suggest you check out my blog on Medium™ or An Unauthorized View Of Everything on Substack™, you won't be disappointed.

🫶 Happy Valentine's Day! Stay safe. 🫶
