I Call It I Valentine

Or what should we call
That little hole
That started out
So empty somehow
And worked so hard
To fill it with ourselves
Like a pocket stuffed
With gold coins or fool's gold
We stack in piles
Like in that bedtime story where a child
Is turned into a seed and buried
In a hole in the ground
Or in one of the holes of memory
So many to choose from
