Notes About The Poem

All Are Beautiful

each star has a shine
each one is a mystery
all are beautiful

each flower, a charm
each has a signature scent
all are enthralling

each woman, a dream
each one has her own allure
All are endearing

You have but one heart
It will enthrone but one love
you have to decide

In loving them all
you take the risk of losing
the one who gives all

I have given my all to one beautiful woman and she is the joy of my life! I will not ever risk losing the love of my life. You give excellent advice, I'm glad you were issued a poetic licence!

Every star has a secret...every flower a root...each allure perfumes with truth...a love throne is built for truest beauty...There is a real perfume of risk in this poem of love moral...a perfume of slow dawn. Sometimes choices are a matter of faith. A very beautiful poem Eileen... J.A.B.

"Overanalyzing something to death robs you from what could be your best and sweetest reality. In every major decision, there is an element of risk. Life is not for the cowardly, but for those who risk all to gain the prize....Some thoughts floating around in my head these past few days! wink emoticon Be brave....follow your heart." Ah...but I am one to talk when I don't follow my own advice. Thank you for your lovely post. I love having you here. HUGS

Thank you, Justin. All what you have said is true. Some barriers can be overcome when there is certainty...perhaps even those of faith. Life is full of risks. I wan to share with you my Facebook post of yesterday:

Just like it is attracted to the flowers and the stars, our heart is also capable of all-loving, but as you say, it will only enthrone one love. Your last stanza makes a lot of sense. hugs // paul

A choice hangs in the balance . . . will he see it, understand it, believe it . . . the heart knows will it be enough . . . a wonderful poem that made me stop, evaluate, ponder the mysteries of the stars, of love, of a decision. Another signature write, Little One, 7

:) Thank you, David. It's been a very long and difficult day. Took to my bed for some time....I have a world of corrections to do...and no heart for any of it. Thanks for the encouragement. I am in need of it. Hugs
