IS MY VALENTINE AT THE ZOO?

Valentine, valentine, who will you be?
A yawning sloth that hangs from a tree, or a
Long-legged giraffe with big brown eyes,
Elusive elephant of enormous size,
Nattering parrot or yackety yak,
Thirsty camel with a hump on his back,
Itching monkey, bumbling old bear,
Nosy narwhale, or panda rare,
Earnest emu who cannot fly,
'Smallest chickadee in the sky, or

Dandy kangaroo who bounds so high?
All of these animals in the zoo
Yearn to be mine...but I'd rather have you!
 


ROSES ARE RED

Roses are red
Violets are blue
Carnations are sweet
And so are you.
And so are they
That send you this
And when we meet
We'll have a kiss.
 


GOING STEADY

Valentine, O Valentine,
I'll be your love and you'll be mine;
We'll care for each other, rain or fine,
And in ninety years we'll be ninety-nine.
 


PLENTY OF LOVE

Plenty of love,
Tons of kisses,
Hope some day
To be your Mrs.
 


MY LOVE IS LIKE A CABBAGE

My love is like a cabbage
Divided into two,
The leaves I give to others
But the heart I give to you
 


LOVE AT SEA

Up through the fog came the The Frisky Dog
With me amd my forty-man crew.
We were tightly packed, as a matter of fact,
For The Dog is a bark canoe.
And the tides that ebb in the middle of Feb.
Rolled in with a nasty howl,
But the crew stood fast to a two-foot mast-----
The flag was a paper towel.
Then the pop-eyed cook took a pop-eyed look,
And he saw what we came to see:
The courtship swoon by a midnight moon
Of an Octopus he and she.
They kissed on the lips and the slithery hips,
They kissed on the suction cups.
And they bobbed in the brine like a ball of twine
Till at last the bosun ups
And he shouts, "I'm Dutch, but I never saw such
Sweet love on Valentine's Day!"
Then arm in arm...in arm...in arm...
The Octopi swam away.
 


THE KANGAROO'S COURTSHIP

"Oh will you be my wallaby?"
Asked Mr. Kangaroo.
"For we could find so very many
Jumping things to do.
I have a pocket two feet wide
And deep inside,
My dear, you'd ride---
Oh, come and be my bouncing bride,
My Valentine, my side-by-side,
I am in love with you."
 


A GIRL'S VALENTINE CHARM

AS TOLD BY HERSELF
[FROM THE CONNOISSEUR, 1775]





LAST Friday was Valentine's Day, and I'll tell you what I did the night before. I got five bay leaves, and pinned four of them to the four corners of my pillow, and the fifth to the middle; and then if I dreamt of my sweetheart, Betty said we would be married before the year was out.

But to make it more sure, I boiled an egg hard, and took out the yolk, and filled it with salt, and when I went to bed ate it, shell and all, without speaking or drinking after it.

We also wrote our lovers' names upon bits of paper, and rolled them up in clay and put them into water; and the first that rose up was to be our valentine. Would you think it? Mr. Blossom was my man, and I lay abed and shut my eyes all the morning, till he came to our house, for I would not have seen another man before him for all the world.
