It's not quite the birds and the bees . . .

. . . instead, it's the birds and John Donne. (Though, depending on which poem of his you choose, it might come to about the same thing in the end.)

So, come on over the Regency Reflections to learn a bit about how someone in Jane Austen's time might have thought about Valentine's Day. (And birds. And poetry. Because what's Valentine's Day without poetry?)

(And birds.)

(Okay, I'm done now.)

Peace of Christ to you,
