How's that song go?
Little arrows in your shoulders
Little arrows in your hair
When you're in love you'll find those little arrows everywhere....
They'll hit you once and
Hit you twice and
Hit you once again
Little arrows hit everybody every now and then
Oooooh,ooooh, oooooh the paaain...

LITTLE ARROWS
Leapy Lee

There's a boy a little boy
Shooting arrows in the blue
And has aimed them at someone
And the question is at who

Aimed at me or aimed at you
It's hard to tell until you're hit
You'll know it when you get one
The arrows that are lit
Little arrows for me and for you
You're falling in love again
You're falling in love again

Little arrows in your clothing
Little arrows in your hair
When you're in love you'll find
Those little arrows everywhere
Little arrows that will hit you once
And hit you once again
Little arrows will hit everyone
Every now and then

There's a boy from the other side
But there's nothing that you can do
And some folks put on armour
But the arrows go straight through
So you see there's no escape
So why not face it
And admit that you love those little arrows
When they fall a little bit

Little arrows in your clothing
Little arrows in your hair
When you're in love you'll find
Those little arrows everywhere
Little arrows that will hit you once
And hit you once again
Little arrows will hit everyone
Every now and then

Poems about arrows, eh? I always got a kick outta this one ----



FROM

AMORETTI


SONNET. XVI.

One day as I vnwarily did gaze
On those fayre eyes my loues immortall light:
The whiles of my stonisht hart stood in amaze,
Through sweet illusion of her lookes delight.
I mote perceiue how in her glauncing sight,
Legions of loues with little wings did fly:
Darting their deadly arrowes fyry bright,
At euery rash beholder passing by.
One of those archers closely I did spy,
Ayming his arrow at my very hart:
When suddenly with twincle of her eye,
The Damzell broke his misintended dart.
Had she not so doon, sure I had bene slayne,
Yet as it was, I hardly scap’t with paine.



Edmund Spenser
(1552 – 1599)

Valentines day might as well be called the day of legal prostitution. It's the only day of the year a guy has to pay for sex from his own girl friend/wife.

Interesting....
According to Bruskin-Goldring Research (for Hartz), 3% of pet owners will give Valentine's Day gifts to their pets. ( Sadie says "DON'T give your dog chocolate! It's toxic to canines").





The true History of Valentines Day
by Mani Niall

5th Century, Rome
Mid February was traditionally the time of the Lupercian festival, an ode to the God of fertility and a celebration of sensual pleasure, a time to meet and court a prospective mate. In AD 496, Pope Gelasius outlawed the pagan festival. But he was clever to replace it with a similar celebration, although one deemed morally suitable. He needed a "lovers" saint to replace the pagan deity Lupercus.

The martyred Bishop Valentine was chosen as the patron saint of the new festival.

Saint Valentine had been beheaded for helping young lovers marry against the wishes of the mad emperor Claudius. Before execution, Valentine himself had fallen in love with his jailer's daughter. He signed his final note to her, "From Your Valentine", a phrase that has lasted through the centuries.

Pope Gelasius didn't get everything he wanted. The pagan festival died out, it is true, but he had further hoped people would emulate the lives of saints. Instead they latched onto the more romantic aspect of Saint Valentines religious life. While not immediately as popular as the more passionate pagan festival, eventually the concept of celebrating true love became known as Valentine's Day.
