Valentine’s day – a day for lovers
Expectations high
Acquire the perfect gift
Bestow in an idyllic setting
Certain to result in some broken hearts
~ True love begins when nothing is looked for in return ~
No expectations here
Content to avoid crowded restaurants
Romanticism preferred impromptu
Celebrations reserved for special moments
Gifting each other’s authenticity
W3 Prompt #92: Wea’ve Written Weekly’s poet of the week, JM Negi, prompts us to write a Puente on the theme of love.
“True love begins when nothing is looked for in return,” Antoine de Saint-Exupery

Gosh, Jenn, your use of contrasts between societal expectations on Valentine’s Day and the celebration of authentic, spontaneous romanticism feels really refreshing ❤
