1. There are many favorite songs of Valentine's Day. Here is one of them:
Let me call you sweetheart,
I'm in love with you.
Let me hear you whisper,
That you love me, too.
Keep the lovelight shining,
In your eyes so true.
Let me call you sweetheart,
I' m in love with you.
2.In Wales wooden love spoons were carved and given as gifts on February
14th. Hearts, keys and keyholes were favorite decorations on the spoons.
The decoration meant, "You unlock my heart!"
3. In the Middle Ages, young men and women drew names from a bowl to see
who their valentines would be. They would wear these names on their sleeves
for one week. To wear your heart on your sleeve now means that it is easy
for other people to know how you are feeling.
5. Some people used to believe that if a woman saw a robin flying overhead
on Valentine's Day, it meant she would marry a sailor. If she saw a sparrow,
she would marry a poor man and be very happy. If she saw a goldfinch,
she would marry a millionaire.
6. A love seat is a wide chair. It was first made to seat one woman and
her wide dress. Later, the love seat or courting seat had two sections,often
in an S-shape. In this way, a couple could sit together -- but not too
closely!
7.Think of five
or six names of boys or girls you might marry, As you twist the stem of
an apple, recite the names until the stem comes off. You will marry the
person whose name you were saying when the stem fell off.
8. Pick a dandelion
that has gone to seed. Take a deep breath and blow the seeds into the
wind. Count the seeds that remain on the stem. That is the number of children
you will have.
