VALENTINE POEM FOR MY WIFE

You get hostile when your Netflix movie keeps stopping & starting,
But nothing you say or do, can ever lead to us parting.
“No, no, my sweet,” I am not to blame when you hit a snag,
“Not on any day, & especially on Valentine’s Day.”
“Harv, fix this thing, and I’ll see,” you say,
While looking at me with some dismay.

“O.K. it’s fixed now! Are you still angry?,” I ask, “Is there no software in you?
Don’t you remember the good times?
Let our memories of a long and happy marriage see us through.”
