For 10 years, health policy wonks have been celebrating Valentine's Day on Twitter with #HealthPolicyValentines.

Where do broken hearts go? Join our cardiovascular site of care shifts webinar on Mar. 3

The tradition started in 2012 when former HHS staffer Emma Sandoe found herself inspired to "tweet one 'health policy valentine' every day until Valentine's Day." It wasn't long before others joined in, filling Twitter with rhymes and poems on everything health care related.

Since then, #HealthPolicyValentines has become a tradition, and we've picked our 10 favorites from this year:

Roses are red 

Violets are blue

Everyone deserves access to health care

And lower out-of-pocket costs, too #HealthPolicyValentines

Roses are red
Kermit is green
To be your valentine
I’ll need proof of vaccine #HealthPolicyValentines

Please don't be absurd.
All the real ones know
"Health care" isn't one word.#HealthPolicyValentines

this is just to say -
i have taken
the rapid test
that was in
the mailbox

and which you
were probably
saving
because they're too damn hard to find right now.

Forgive me;
My toddler
keeps coughing
in my face.#HealthPolicyValentines

I came here tonight because when you realize you are going to spend the rest of your life trying to get reimbursed for an at-home COVID test, you want the rest of your life to start as soon as possible. #HealthPolicyValentines

Some people send a rose
Others, a carnation
But all I really want is
An Assistant Secretary for Planning and Evaluation#HealthPolicyValentines

The non-termination of my love extends far beyond the end of the end of the public health emergency. #HealthPolicyValentines #Medicaid

roses are red,
what I’m going to say is true:
health care is two words
and a human right too #HealthPolicyValentines

Females are hens
Males are called rooster
If you want to come near me
Please get a booster#HealthPolicyValentines

Waiting for the pediatric adcom
is like waiting for you after a summer apart.
I know you will eventually tell me everything,
Because if you don’t, it will break my heart.#HealthPolicyValentines
