Los Angeles: Popular search engine Google joined lovers across the world to wish the globe on Happy Valentine's Day on Monday by decorating their homepage with a dramatic doodle.

In the doodle, two drops of water could be seen moving apart from one another on a sad note and then uniting to form a heart.

Google website described the doodle as: "Rain or shine, will you be mine? Today’s Valentine's Day Doodle celebrates the most romantic day of the year, when people all over the world express affection to their lovers, friends, and partners through gifts, greetings, and more."

"Did you know that during the Middle Ages, European countries like England and France believed that February 14th was the start of mating season for birds? They associated this phenomenon with love and began romantic celebrations soon after. The holiday became more popular throughout the world in the 17th century," it said.

The Cupid has returned on the true red lettered day on the calender as lovers across the globe are celebrating Valentine's Day on Tuesday.

As the new year begins, Valentine's Day is awaited with baited breaths by the lovers. A week-long celebration takes place, eventually leading up to Valentine's Day.

The week-long celebrations include Rose, Propose, Chocolate, Teddy Bear, Promise, Hug and Kiss Days.

The young generation flood into the malls, coffee shops, parks and movie theaters in pairs, in order to celebrate the entire week as a week of love. There's also a tradition of gift-giving on Valentine's Day. Roses, Chocolates, Cards, Teddy Bears and Jewelry are among the things that are mostly seen as Valentine's gifts.
