This is great, you are one of the best authors i\’ve ever read

that poem made me think of glory of love and the big let down

So very true, nice work.

Nice one, been thinking the same thing myself just lately. Very thought provoking.

Dear Jaylen- I thank you from the bottom of my heart for your praise. I hope that I can continue to live up to your expectations!

Dear Kelin Hurt- I’m glad that you found your own meaning and emotion within the poem. I wrote it as an acceptance of what love turned out to be for me, but rereading it, I can see exactly what you mean.

Dear Jacin- Thank you so much for you kind words. I appreciate your feedback.

Dear LJ Reeves- I’m so glad that you think so! That is exactly how I intended this piece to turn out, and I’m so glad that someone else has been thinking something similar.

All of your comments are highly appreciated. Thank you for taking the time to comment!

This is by far one of my favorite poems I’ve read from this site in awhile. The flow is perfect – soft, enchanting, soothing – like a gentle caress. The words, the images, the way it’s skillfully put together, masterful.

I especially love:

love is a quiet acceptance,
a meeting of souls,
a joining of hearts,
a sharing of dreams,
that is as soft as a whisper
and as pure as the driven snow.

Simply a gifted SPLENDOR!!*

Blessings.

Sincerely,

Liane,

Thank you so much for your comments. It is such an honor to have you enjoy my work even a little bit as much as I enjoy yours!

Sincerely,

You are right and I’ve never thought to see love in this way. True, I want the burst of color and rolling thunder but the meeting of souls and joining of hearts sounds so much more romantic.

Thanks for sharing.

Kim,
Thank you so much! It’s nice to find someone who understands the feelings behind my words.

Hi, Eva, how are you?
I will have to agree with your perception. I really like this free verse, it flows and has a good theme, and sheer and appropriate images.
I happen to think that love is a little bit more than just feeling. I happen to think that love is an action that we choose to follow, a path we choose to take. When we stand at the crossroads of so many points in our lives, we show love by choosing the proper way, the supreme way that love would have us choose. Don’t get me wrong, passion has it’s place, but that’s where it only begins, don’t you agree? Thanks for sharing, and have a great day.
