Valentine's poems competition winner...

...plus the runners up!

After much deliberation and only 6 poems being entered (what happened to all the romantics at Bluhalo?!), Spencer Gallagher (our MD) chose the winning poem (mainly because it was one of the only serious Valentine's ones!). Just so you get a real feel for our love of Valentine's Day here at Bluhalo, I've included the other entries too... enjoy! I think for the minute we're going to stick to what we're really good at - designing and building websites!

The Winner - A Time To Dine

Seven thirty to half past nine,
Prelude to a night divine.
Oysters that slip, then Asparagus tip.
Thoughts at first; Then let the bodice rip.
On to desert with the sweetest wine,
Relax the head and let the body unwind.
Strolling home hand strays to the hip,
The neck is teased with a gentle nip.
At home in bed as bodies entwine,
A silent whisper; Be my valentine.


The Others

A relationship with cupid

The modern era is a lot of fun,
It’s like Cupid’s armed with a machine gun!
Relationships up and down like nobody knows,
And young mothers with ASBOs!

Cupid’s ammo isn’t just love,
He’s also firing lust from above,
Wounded by this, I drink my drink,
Before waking next to something ugly and pink!

Times have changed and I’m made wiser,
But Cupid’s still the same cheeky conspirer,
Just the other day, he caught me unaware
And shot me so hard I cried without care

On valentines day 2008,
I love to hate him but he’s still a mate,
Ok, his arrows normally hurt too much,
But I know one will strike full of luck!


Valentine’s poem

The crispness retreated
The sunshine emerged
The fog cleared
The due dried
The colours flourished
And all before breakfast in bed


Two become one


One look, one smile
One call, one kiss…

Could all lead the way to a life of bliss

Two hearts, two lives
Two paths become one

From one lonely soul, to a pair full of fun.


Valentine’s Day

Valentines day
What a waste of cash
I’d rather it was cancelled
So I could go out on the lash


Valentine's Haiku

Emotional Blackmail Time
Tacky cards again
All a marketing swindle!
