Sweethearts Day

She was getting ready for their date
when she heard him pull into the drive.
It seemed like such a long time
but he was always home by five.

When she greeted him at the front door
he was grinning from ear to ear
holding a box of Lucky Charms
and a bottle of Henry Weinhard's Root Beer.

She said, "Just a minute,
I have something for you, too."
She presented him with a six-pack of Busch,
and a jar of salted cashews.

They laughed at their gifts
giving each other a sweet kiss
sat down on the couch and turned on the t.v.
and watched a show they didn’t want to miss!
