Love Is a Fragile Thing - For Jan Allison

A response written after reading "You've changed my life completely" by Jadazzle United For Jan and Darren (Soulmates sint rara et mirabile) Love is such a fragile thing, Softer than a butterflies wing. The gentle entwining of mind and soul, A linking of passions that makes one whole. It can rise and fall just as the tide, And link two people across oceans wide It brings forth such joy and pure delight Creates a bond that holds them tight Love is such a fragile thing, As beautiful as Angels sing. It will lift you so high above the earth, And give your heart a soothing berth. It fills your senses your thoughts as well, Your entire being resonates like a bell. Promises exchanged sweet words spoken, To last an eternity and never be broken. Love is such a fragile thing, Passion it enflames desire it does bring. Lost to the world in ardour and delight, All else fades from the lovers sight. Ensconced in a world of poetic diction, Wrapped up in each other as if in a fiction. Still even love sometimes can go awry, But in the end true love can never die.

Thank you for the kind words. The poem sort of wrote itself, the words came so easily, i just hope it is up to the JaDazzle United standard. I am pleased that my friend Jan is happy with it and hope it has put a smile on her face as that was the main purpose.

LOL I found it tough to start off with but working with Darren was so simple - we used to have such a laugh doing them - the best bit about collaborating is that no one knows who wrote which verse so we could always blame each other for any naughtiness lol:-) Hugs jan xx

Your works with Darren are great and i have enjoyed reading them, they have taught me a lot about writing style. However i don't think i will be able to write anything like the hot steamy ones. love Shane xxx
