Soviet Red Army day or Russia's men's day?

Today is Soviet Red Army day. In modern Russia they celebrate it as "men's day " or army day. However, These Russians demonstrating for socialism carrying Stalin's portraits. Stalin against Putin? I am not sure how that works out, only a Russian will know.

(There were speeches against Gorbachev as well.)

My Valentine

My Valentine

There is a heartache
to have daughters
when they are young 
dad is their hero
they follow you every where
want to do everything what you do
and they grew old
teenagers...
one in another country
as an exchange student
"I am fine " she says
"have fun dad"
what ..... 
other one says
"why don't you and mum go out"
"I am meeting with my friends"
suddenly  missus and me
alone in our house 
front of the TV 
well you know
lets go out 
valentine or not,
you have me
I tell her
love you my girls 
dad is not alone
I know I am in your thoughts
happy valentine to you all
who think they are alone
in this day 
No...
we are with you 
in our thoughts
you don't need a valentine
to think about friends
