My Valentine isn’t always nice and sweet,
Some of those qualities she doesn’t always meet;
She spends all day raising my boy;
Going to work and being my toy.
*****
She is the doctor and cleans my house,
Not to delicate to kill a mouse;
She tolerates and mends my dogs,
Plays with my son and handles his frogs.
*****
She washes our clothes and puts up with my friends,
Loves my daughter and all of her trends;
She takes care of us and gives us something to eat,
And scold the boy when he doesn’t raise the seat.
*****
She isn’t always nice and sweet,
Those qualities she doesn’t always meet;
But to me and my family she’s sent from above,
She’s our mother and wife, the one we love.
