Tour Day 720. Beloved

Twenty boxes in a row 

Decorated in red and white 

Each adorned with a heart

A Valentine’s mailbox awaits. 

**

Third grade anticipation grows

How many cards inside 

Will the cute one write

Something special to me? 

**

That need for acceptance 

Never quite goes away 

Our desire to be seen & known

And to matter to others.  

**

There is Great News

This Valentine’s Day!  

Not only are You

Seen and known...

**

Every hair is numbered. 

Each tear is held. 

For You are beyond special. 

You are His

Beloved.
