Exqusite clip, Cinema Paradiso. Love this - I couldn't embed or I would have. 

It wasn't  wine I had too much of
it was the double shot of my baby's love

Swinging Medallions "Double Shot of my Baby's Love"

There was a time that I adored this sweet day. Lifetimes ago.  Thought it was all that and a bag of chips. Yeah, really. The concept was so dear. But like all the best laid plans (pun?) they turn a whiter shade of pale. But I am feeling in the mood to show some love. Yea yea feeling dah love.

And last,  a favorite poem I keep locked in my heart, is released for Valentines day.

Pablo Neruda

Sonnet XVII (100 Love Sonnets, 1960)      

I do not love you as if you were salt-rose, or topaz,
or the arrow of carnations the fire shoots off.
I love you as certain dark things are to be loved,
in secret, between the shadow and the soul.
`
I love you as the plant that never blooms
but carries in itself the light of hidden flowers;
thanks to your love a certain solid fragrance,
risen from the earth, lives darkly in my body.
`
I love you without knowing how, or when, or from where.
I love you straightforwardly, without complexities or pride;
so I love you because I know no other way
`
than this: where I does not exist, nor you,
so close that your hand on my chest is my hand,
so close that your eyes close as I fall asleep.

Happy Valentine's Day, Pamela.

Love,
Fran

Ahh... but shouldn't one express their love to their loved ones every day, not just one day of the year?

[John D. Infidel]

Pamela,
Happy Valentine's Day!
Schools are closed (where's global warming when you need it), kid is home, I'm working from home and I'm looking forward to listening to your interview with Mark Steyn.
Yours in Liberty!
John

I know what you mean about love. I'm sure we all do...

[Randy]

Happy Valentines day. Thank you for sharing that wonderful sonnet.

Happy Valentines Day.

MMMWAHH!!

Great clip. It takes seeing the whole movie to get the emotional response that the scene delivers, but just seeing the clip reminded me of how powerful an expression of love is conveyed there.

Pamela, Happy Valentine's Day! Like a few others here, I loved the sonnet. I may try to pass it off on my wife as my own (pulling a Joe Biden), but I am sure that since she was an English major I am in trouble.

Happy Valentine's Day!
Thank you for bringing us the Mark Steyn interview and that lovely sonnet. You made my day a little brighter! Be good to yourself today.

[Kelly Anne]

I see I am not the only romantic here. That was a beautiful sonnet Pamela. Thanks for unlocking your heart and sharing that with us. Steyn was great too!

Mark Steyn is a hunk. Love him. That is a pretty poem for Valentimes Day. Cant say I celebrate V. day much anymore. The last time I did I got socked in the eye.

That was lovely Pamela. I hope this day brings you more then just nostalgia. There's always the future.

Oh well, I woulda put the look on your face when I met you at the convention....THAT was great and is in my eye's camera forever..

Happy Valentine's Day to you and your great crew.

Neruda was a HUUGE Commie Pink-o Socialist.

And like most people of this vein, he could pure write.

Surprised you even know about him, let alone post his work.
