For You My Brothers and Sisters With Love

love is vital if you find it fight for it we give up too quickly on our partners we need to be in touch with our hearts not our minds would you fault a rose because it has thorns? their perfectly weaved petals alone forgives the little blood they might draw cherish one on one love it is the serum that sustains us as important as water it is the meals give us sustenance it is easy to quit on someone easy to snort the drug infatuation new union comes with a substantial boost of adrenalin but what goes up must come down. that is the frustration of drugs the high is fleeting true love does not happen by accident it is a conscious commitment nurture your love never leave your garden unattended don’t wait until you lose it to see the writing on the wall love on its own contains our purpose our joy our success our fulfillment if you have found it grab on and never let go it just may be the last rose in the garden

Awesome write! "we need to be in touch with our hearts and not our minds" so true, so much more important to know the heart. Thank you for a beautiful verse this afternoon. :-) Christine

This has a soul-exploring depth in my mind. It reaches beyond the infatuation, the tease, the occasional please...digs in and then offers a real taste of the meat.... that which sustains the heart is worth fighting for.

Lovely write on love and commitment and actually working at a relationship - so easy to give up when the going gets tough. Make sure your garden stays well watered and if what goes up doesn't come down seek medical attention ! Hugs jan xxx

:-) I try to have laughter in my life and in most of my poems if i can Maurice but it is so so so tough at the moment but today is a very good day just had good news about my writing partner slowly recovering from his illness so I have a massive grin on my face and a glow in my heart:-) Hugs Jan xx
