Valentine's Poems

Even though love shouldn't be committed to one day of commercial celebration, for those of you who celebrate it, Happy Valentine's Day! To those who don't, have yourselves a happy day, too. Just non-valentine-y.

For those of you interested, The Poetry Foundation has set up a page that contains a wide variety of poems for all your Valentine's needs, be they romantic, erotic, funny, or for you cynics out there, breakup-themed.

Just a suggestion, check out the audio version of Billy Collins' poem "Litany" which is both romantic and coolly ironic.

Read "Litany" by Billy Collins and here's a printable version of said poem. Stick it on your fridge!
