A Valentine’s Day Ditty to Our Wonderful City

Valentine’s Day can be a challenging time for those who are single or unhappy in their relationship. Speaking to someone who works on our motorways a few days ago, I discovered that the most suicides are committed on Valentine’s Day and Christmas Day, in particular by men who don’t know who to confide in. I wanted to tell everyone who feels lonely at this time that it’s good to talk to someone and people will be honoured that you’ve opened up to them. Big cities in particular can feel isolating, especially when you’ve come from a smaller community. Yet there are like-minded souls out there who will be only too happy to connect. With that in mind, we’ve decided that this year we’d write about a love affair that everyone can hopefully relate to. It’s a Valentine’s Day ditty or poem, celebration our special relationship with London. We make no excuses for the corny rhymes

London, we love you on sunny days…

And also for your colourful ways

We love it when you’re feeling pretty

And when you’re more nitty gritty

We can’t resist your green spaces

And incredible historical places

We really dig your hidden gems

And long walks along The Thames

We love your vibrant dining scene

And that you’re home to the Queen

We even love you in the rain

Although your transport can be a pain

We’ve tried to leave you many times

Yet we’d sadly miss Big Ben’s chimes

So London, we are here to stay
Have a fabulous Valentine’s Day!

 

How do you feel about Valentine’s Day? Do you love or loathe it?
