Flying Over Valentine

Sorrow goes on ahead of me
to get everything ready
the way I like it
calmly awaiting my arrival
but happiness is viral
and only happens during
a present-filled flight over
fields that go on and on
though it’s sorrow that has
my back and whispers against
whatever I was thinking
please just do what I say
I do try to listen and respect
the sensible claims wisdom makes
I see him pausing looking back at me
sternly choking a grin
