Add an 'H' to an organ that hears, and you get the pulsing symbol of Valentine's Day. Without my first letter, I am all ears. What am I?
A heart
If you remove the initial letter 'H' from the word 'heart', you are left with 'ear', which is the organ responsible for hearing. Adding the 'H' back transforms it into 'heart', the primary organ and classic symbol of love on Valentine's Day.
