Today’s gift idea should cost nothing except your time and creativity. Create a handmade card with an original verse penned by you.
When I told my husband I had changed Day Twelve’s gift idea a few days ago he seemed a tad surprised. He had no idea the list had been altered as he looks at it a day prior. What I first put on the list, when I created it back in January, was to give six small Mylar balloons. I changed my mind on the first day of February. Why you wonder? It would be fun to be creative instead of going out to make a purchase. Everyone has paper and pen at home. Most everyone has a computer and printer. You can design something elaborate or just simple. I went with simple.
Just a plain piece of paper; heart downloaded on the front; verse inside; small hearts on inside of front; then on back X’s and O’s.
I just wanted to go simple with the card as I also gave two Mylar balloons in a bud vase.
My poem I wrote for today is called “Costless”. I wanted something simple and short that would fit into a small card.
You need not write an epic but words from the heart pure and simple.
As I sit here typing up today’s ‘rambling’ I’ve not yet gotten my daily gift. I personally think my husband has not yet written his poem or he’s forgoing today’s gift to me. It’s still early in the day so we shall see.
Until tomorrow which is Valentine’s Day Eve enjoy the day. There’s a bonus today; you get to read the piece I wrote for today and one from the book.
Day 13 Gift Idea.....Bag of conversation hearts or small boxes.

This is the poem I gave my husband
today.
COSTLESS
©Scottie-ann Murphy
Freely I give my heart filled with love
No price tag or barcode upon it
No in store purchase required
And no online shopping
It’s given without a monetary exchange
Love.....from me to you
Pure and simple
Given away gratuitously
A rarity.....a priceless commodity
Handed to you free of charge
There is no catch to the gift
No strings attached
Take it....or leave it....
It’s up to you
❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️

WISH UPON a STAR
(From the book “LOVE ALWAYS and FOREVER”)
A pinkish tinted full moon shines down giving us light as we walk towards the lake
Reflecting moonlight on the water
Casting eerie shadows upon the ground
A warm April night strolling to the end of the dock
Taking a seat on the bench
Staring out across the water
We do not speak....both of us lost in thoughts
I wonder what you are thinking.....do you care what is on my mind
Silence it's deafening
Looking up into the evening sky
stars sparkle like a million diamonds
I find a star.....make a wish
You reach for my hand
Then whispering you say
"I love you"
A wish came true
💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜
