The last time President Obama appeared on the “Ellen DeGeneres Show,” when he was a long-shot candidate for the White House in October 2007, he boogied obligingly with Ms. DeGeneres in the ritual welcome dance that she does with her guests.

 

There was no dancing on Thursday when Mr. Obama made a return visit as president, taping a show that will air on Friday. But he was willing to clown around in other ways, reciting a Valentine’s Day poem to his wife, Michelle, after watching her read a poem to him (via videotape) from the White House.

“Roses are red, violets are blue, you are the president, and I am your boo,” Mrs. Obama said. She told Ms. DeGeneres that she was the only person with whom she would share her husband on Valentine’s Day; then Mrs. Obama ordered him to bring her back chocolates.
