M First Dat
St. Valentine’s Day is one of the oldest holi- ad “

days celebrated in the Western world.

Historians have found that the idea of send-

ing love letters and messages to one’s sweet-

heart on Feb. 14 dates back to ancient Rome.

North Shore News readers carry on the tra-

dition, penning the poems to loved ones that
appear in these two pages.

My very first date went berserk
I found out my boyfriend was a jerk,

‘He spilt greasy popcom on my new skirt.
And his clothes were all covered in dirt,
He hadn't washed his hands before he came
And he said he had his parents to blame,
Then I patiently asked him why,
And he told another lie
He said he had no soap
And § said “Ya right you big dope”

And then I poured my drink on his shirt
Which got rid of some of the dirt.
Then { left the movie theatre

«Now he's probably saying “f hate her"
I'm glad he thinks that anyway
And E hope he says that everyday.

Now I have another boyfriend
Who I think is the living end

He’s so nice and funny too ;
He's so cute with his eyes of blue -
I know this time it will be fate ©
After my disastrous very fi rst date}.

Our relationship

Is like the ocean

Just rolling in

With the tide

Never knowing :
What’s beyond the horizon Y=
Just going forward

Never looking back

You know just

How much I love you

For you are my wife

My lover, my friend

My valentine

I Love you, Iris.
