“VALENTINE’S DAY” – by Des Kelly

“A very happy Valentine’s day to each & every e’Lanka Member & Reader. Your “Valantine” will know WHO you are, so do the correct thing, even if, unlike Poet Geoffrey Chaucer who, in the 14th Century AD wrote quite a lengthy 700 page poem entitled Parliament of Fowls to signify that “birds” too, fall in love, thereby presenting us with the eggs we love to eat with breakfast every day. 

Apart from all this, St.Valentine was a Martyr who did all the right things until he was then wrongfully jailed by Roman Emperor Claudius, and, according to legend, fell in love with a young chamber-maid, working at the palace, and got executed for his trouble & strife (his would-be wife, according to Aussie lingo).

So friends, there is no need to write any long poems, just send a card, complete with one red rose (a bouquet is far too expensive these days), and have A VERY HAPPY VALENTINE’S DAY, TODAY – 14th February, 2023.
