Red.

A bouquet of roses for you,
I’ll throw in some chocolates too,
One last thing to do,
Will you be my Valentine? 

Friends can celebrate
The greatness of the day
When all this kindness spreads
It will never end!

Pink is what to do,
Or red, NOT BLUE.
Maybe roses are too much,
But I think these look perfect for YOU!

Roses are red,
Violets are blue,
I’d love to spend,
Valentines with YOU

Roses Roses everywhere, 
The sight of Roses fill the air,
Box of chocolates try and compete,
But the essence of roses, of course, is not going to face defeat.

Boxes Of Chocolate Day

Chocolate- yum!
Another box
And another
And another

Are they all for me?
I can’t believe it.
More and more chocolate
I can almost taste it

Coming close to my mouth
Closer, closer
And then mom comes in.

“No more chocolate!”
“No more sugar!”
But the pile of candy 
Seems to get bigger

The sweetness as it melts
As your taste buds rejoice
Right before you hear 
your little brother’s voice:
“I WANT IT!” 

A second later, and it’s gone.
All gone.
All of my chocolates
Now I have to wait for the next 
Boxes Of Chocolate.

Short Story Written By: Kamryn Daniels

It was Valentine's Day and Sarah did not have an invitation to the coolest Valentine’s Party after school. She really wanted to go, but had other problems in addition to not having an invitation. Her parents had grounded her for not doing her chores. 

She walked down the hallway towards her locker and noticed other kids with presents. At that moment, she remembered she had forgotten about the Valentine's gift exchange. She walked into math class feeling nervous. When Sarah got to her desk she gasped when she saw a party invitation. She picked it up and stared at it and then quickly put it in her backpack. 

“Ok class, it’s time for the gift exchange,” Mrs. Andrews stated. She called the students to stand up with their gifts and Sarah immediately began rummaging through her backpack. Sarah thought, “This invitation is the only precious thing I have to give and this is my fault I am in this situation.” She carefully pulls the invitation out of her backpack just in time for the teacher to call her. She slumps her shoulders, walks to the front of the classroom and puts that beautiful, brightly colored invitation covered in jewels into Barbara’s box. As she looks up, Barbara's box looks dull and sad. 

After the long day at school, Sarah walks home sadly knowing she won’t go to the party. As she walks up to her porch she notices a small piece of paper saying, “look behind you.” She turns around and her friends jump out of the bushes and yell, “Happy Valentine’s Day!” Sarah was shocked in disbelief and wondering why everyone was in her yard. One of her friends came up to her and said, “Everybody loves you for giving Barbara the invitation. We knew that Stacie would never give her an invitation because she looks different than everyone else.” 

Sarah and her friends go pick up Barbara and take her to the party. When they arrive, Sarah sees Stacie standing at the front door. She has this sassy look on her face because she doesn't want Barbara there. Barbara shows Stacie her invitation that says “plus one”. Stacie rolls her eyes as Barbara and Sarah walk into the party. As bad as she felt for forgetting a gift earlier in the day, it all ended up working out or the best.
