Oh Gentle Gender:

I delight in the gentle notions of women, 

Every smile a gift of beauty always brimming,

Know then every mother, sister and lover,

To a man you are like no other, 

To us you are so very wanted?

With an emotion fierce and constant. 

Defining humanity by elegant degree's, 

Show me love make me believe.

Father made me proud, taught me to stand, 

But mother showed me how to be a gentleman.

What pure love is a sister and brother, 

A bond the can never be sundered.

An endless well of passion is a woman for her man.

It has been so since time began.

Remember ladies you are the spark divine.

From my heart, I wish you all a happy Valentine.
