Roses are red,
Violets are blue.
My f-list is great;
I love all of you.


ETA: Yes, yes, fine, I appreciate you more than that dinky poem suggests. Here is a tritina, coerced inspired by [livejournal.com profile] purridot. Pure sap, but nevertheless true (and in pentameter!):


On LJ we can squee and share our love,
bonding with strangers who become our friends
to celebrate the things that bring us joy.

In fandom and beyond, through grief and joy
alike, we've come to laugh, support and love
each other -- although far apart -- as friends.

I don't know where I'd be without you, friends.
With luck, this Valentine conveys the joy
it is to have you in my life, to love.

My love to you, dear friends, who bring me joy.




I mean it. I don't always do a good job at keeping up with everyone, but you're in my thoughts, and you make my life better with your conversation and your art and your passion and your wit and your ... everything. You really do. ♥

I wish I were getting an MRI of my chest instead of my abdomen today, because then I could show you my heart and do little dotted lines showing which pieces you've stolen. :D

I hope those of you celebrating today have a wonderful time, and that those of you who hate the holiday with an unholy passion don't have too horrible a day. For the rest, happy Thursday!

LOL, I kind of figured, but I wanted to see whether it was real AND NOT JUST SOMETHING YOU MADE UP. Because I wouldn't put it past you ;)

Hmm, I don't see any right now, but it's a little overcast here...

Like the UNTINA, a one-line poem using all the words at once?

But surely that would be dull.

Incredibly dull.

Well, yes. Or maybe an untina is like an anti-sestina -- combine them and they EXPLODE.

Fragments of verse all over the place - aiyeee! And indeed, literature as we know it shall end.

Gah, where were we talking about Richard Chamberlain? I can't find the thread(s). But remember when I said we mercilessly teased my mom about it when she found out he was gay and therefore never going to go out with her? Well anyway, look what my sister gave her (http://bironic.livejournal.com/118468.html?thread=1846212#t1846212) for Valentine's Day yesterday. *g*
