Here Are All The Valentines

If into each life some rain must fall,
You had more than your share of rain;
Childhood was no picnic at all---
But I'm here to make up for the hurt and the pain.

Take my hand,
I'm very strong,
Don't be afraid---
And here are all the Valentines
You never got in the second grade.
I know well
How alone you felt,
How things always seemed to go amiss---
Some grow cold
While some people melt---
It's not easy
Being vulnerable
In a world as tough as this.
There's no doubt
You are the one
For whom I prayed---
And here are all the Valentines
You never got in the second grade.
From now on
Things will be fine
And every day
Will bring another Valentine.
