You’re a good friend.
You are funny and kind.
Will you say ‘yes,’
And be my Valentine?

There are hearts. There are flowers.
The best part is candy.
That’s why Valentine’s Day
Is so dandy!

Mostly red.

There you have it; ten short Valentine poems for kids.The good news is that Valentine's Day poems, especially those for kids, can be very short. These poems are a way of expressing happy thoughts and a way of sharing cards and gifts, in and out of school. Encourage your students or your children to write their own short poems. Illustrations may be drawn with pens, markers or crayons, or even cut out of colorful construction paper.  Don't forget, if your budding poets would like to share their poetry (and art) with the world, encourage them to post it on ClassroomPoems.
