When I grow up, will I still be princess?
Of course, says glowing daddy.

Valentine
Valentinius--
Not much is known about him,
But all girls love him.
Saint Valentine's Feast,
On February fourteenth:
Mostly chocolates!
It would make more sense
To honor Aphrodite...
So then, why don't we?!

Valentine Delight
Part 1.
Valentine delight!
I know it's just a first date...
I should spend a night.
I see what you want!
Although we recently met...
Let's live for tonight.
How tempting of you!
But what's a couple more days...
What if it's not right?
