You didn't just buy it – you chose it with care,
The light through the windows, the neighborhood air.
The yard that had promise, the rooms that felt right –
You signed on the line, and you've loved it day and night.
You've learned all its quirks, like a partner you know –
The door that needs coaxing, the drain that runs slow.
You've shown up for it, season by season and year,
And it's sheltered you well, kept the ones that you hold dear.
Because that's what love is – not the perfect and new,
But the choosing again, every morning, to stay true.
You chose this house. You keep choosing it still.
And it holds you in return – and it always will.
So on this Valentine's, beneath Tampa Bay skies,
We see all the love in the care that you prize.
From us to your doorstep, with warmth on this day –
Happy Valentine's. We're glad that you chose to stay.
