I bought a box of chocolate hearts, a present for my mother. They looked so good I tasted one, and then I tried another. They both were so delicious that I ate another four, and then a couple more, and then a half dozen more.

My Mother’s Chocolate Valentine
A Poem by Helen Steiner Rice
The more that you’ll always have to spare, The more you love, The more you give The more you’ll find, The more you get, That life is good, The more you laugh, And friends are kind, The less you fret, For only what we give away, The more you do unselfishly, Enriches us from day to day. The more you live abundantly, The more of everything you share, Submitted by: Dianne Roderick
HOA ANNUAL MEETING MONDAY, FEBRUARY 26TH 7PM – STARLIGHT BALLROOM
I couldn’t seem to stop myself, I nibbled on and on, before I knew what happened all the chocolate hearts were gone.. I felt a little guilty, I was stuffed down to my socks, I ate my mother’s Valentine… I hope she likes the box.
