There's nothing quite like a poem. Especially one written just for you.

If you've got a thing for rhyming, this Valentine's Day is the perfect opportunity to show it off with a poem for a loved-one.

It could be a poem for your wife, your husband, or your adorable pet poodle.

But whoever the poem is for, the winner will be displayed for all the world to see as a featured story on Valentine's Day, right here on Patch. (Special thanks to reader Tom Sheltraw for dreaming this up).

How do I enter?

It's easy! Just follow these two steps:

1) Add a photo of the person (or pet!) you adore to this story. Just click the green words that say "Upload photos and videos" below the picture of a red rose.

2) Post the poem in the caption
