Yes, we do need to remember those who have lost a loved one on Valentines Day. Chances are they are not okay. Thank you for the reminder in this contest entry. Good luck with the contest.

Thank you very much for your kind review.
Comment from Bill Schott
This 5-7-5, Prayers for Comfort, has the proper formatting and notes all those hearts that are making it through life without the ones with whom they started. Tough.

Thank you, Bill, for your review. I had two friends whose husbands died recently, and they were on my heart when I wrote this.

Thank you for sharing this, Verna. You are so thoughtful and sweet. I'll be joining you because I have friends that have loved ones that are gone. Valentine's Day tends to be sad for them. Sending you my best today as always, and my very best wishes for the upcoming contest, Sal XOs

I like your new quote at the end!
Comment from BethShelby
That is a good prayer. Valentine Day's doesn't bother me. Days and dates aren't something I ever think about, but I know a lot of people do. If someone dies on a Holiday, it ruins that day forever for them.

Comment from Wendy G
That is a very thoughtful and sensitive poem. It must be hard for many people, those whose sweethearts are gone, those looking for love without success. Your compassion is evident. Well written.

A sweet and thoughtful 5-7-5 verse incorporating Valentine's Day and a prayer for all those who are on their own, having lost their loved ones. An excellent and sensitive poem of inclusion. Thanks for sharing, Verna. Good luck, Debbie

Thanks for an excellent review, my friend. I tried to increase the font size on this one, but it didn't work--oh well! I have a couple of friends who are recent widows, and I wanted to encourage them.

I have not lost a sweetheart to death, but they are gone just the same. I appreciate your sentiments. Your syllable count was correct, too. Thank you for sharing, and best wishes to you.

This is a heartfelt piece for Valentine's Day. It's a joyful day for many, but for others, it's a day of loneliness and mourning. Yes, may God comfort their sad hearts.

Since two good friends of mine are recent widows, they've been on my mind today. Thank you for your thoughtful review.

I have a friend who became a widow a couple years ago and she is still grieving. I thought of her as I read your poem?
