Valentineless

February fourteenth.
Is my calendar slow?
No card through my letter box,
Has no one love to show?

February fourteenth.
What can I say to that?
No postman's droppings
To land on my mat?

February fourteenth.
I am left bereft.
I haven't even got one
Sent to me in jest.

The only one I've got
I sent to myself.
It really looks as though
I'm left on the shelf.
