Kate pulls up the shade and throws a little love
Roses are red,
Violets are blue,
And this week the Korner
Is for all of you.
Normally I use it
Just to make the grade,
But it’s come to my notice
People like the shade
That I’m throwing
At this thing and that,
From hallways to ground hogs,
You keep coming back.
It’s peculiar, I think,
Because all I do is complain.
So either you think I’m funny,
Or you’re all insane.
But I admire your devotion
On every Tuesday,
To have so many wonder
At what I might say.
You make me feel needed
And worth all your time.
I’m inspired to write
Nothing short of sublime
For our lovely Knight Crier
Because I know you’ll all read it,
And take the time to search
For my dazzling wit.
But wait, that compliment,
How did it get up there?
A slip on the keyboard,
Maner-bear, I swear.
I meant what I said,
This week is not about me.
There’s no Valentine satire –
Check out Natalie’s,
Which will come soon.
And hey, while you’re here,
Enjoy Tyra’s creativity
As new stories appear.
Oooh and aaah over Cydney,
Who’s photography inclined.
Mikayla’s flair for culture
Is relevantly twined.
Taylor’s got a writer’s voice
You wouldn’t see from looking at her.
And Dante’s got you covered
On all kinds of sports matter.
Ryan keeps things entertaining,
Full of school conspiracy.
Eric has high hopes for us,
Of the CNN variety.
One Madi keeps her cool
Taking down the Twitter grief,
While the other Madi kills her job
As editor in chief.
Steph has got the sass you need
To be editor number 2,
And Kee, my friend, or “Llave,”
You just keep doing you.
Regardless if you read my Korner,
You all deserve a mention.
Valentines are made with love,
And this is my intention.
Thank you all for sticking with me,
And I hope you’ll see it through.
So for now a happy Valentine’s Day
From me to all of you.
