February’s Elegance

“I stood beside a hill
Smooth with new-laid snow,
A single star looked out
From the cold evening glow.
There was not other creature
That saw what I could see,
I stood and watched the evening star
As long as it watched me.” 
–   Sara Teasdale, February Twilight

Rain or Shine … Be My Valentine
Raindrops on our dresses,
Sunshine on our face,
No matter what the weather,
The look of love won’t be replaced.

The silent sound as rain falls,
The brilliance of the sun.
They only promise radiance,
Caused by either one.

Let it rain, or let it shine,
It won’t matter none.
You’re such a lovely Valentine,
In either rain, or sun.

Let it snow, let it hail,
Earth blanketed with white.
It won’t prevent our day,
Or deny the magic of our night.
– Donna Wallace

“February makes a bridge and March breaks it.”
–  George Hebert

“The February sunshine steeps your boughs and tints the buds and swells the leaves within.”
–   William C. Bryant
