Because I Love You

If hamburgers aren’t really made out of ham
If jelly won't work to get out of a jam
If something that’s old becomes something we knew
It don’t really matter because I love you

Heidi Sands Date: 9/2/2019 3:08:00 PM This is great. And so much else doesn't matter when there is love :) Login to Reply Chris Green Date: 9/2/2019 3:17:00 PM Just a snippet out of one of my poems for the contest. That's what they asked for so this is what I picked out. Thank you again Heidi

Connie Marcum Wong Date: 8/30/2019 3:23:00 PM So true....love is the most important thing in life. Best for a win with this little pearl of wisdom Chris! xxoo Login to Reply Chris Green Date: 8/30/2019 4:35:00 PM Thank you Connie. The contest rules said enter a four line verse from one of your previously posted poems that you feel could stand on its own, so I went back and found this in one of my fun pieces. I am happy you liked it.

Alexis Y. Date: 8/30/2019 3:19:00 PM Hi Chris, This is a good entry for the contest theme. At the end of the day the only thing that really matters is the love we give, and the love we receive. I wish you the best of luck in the contest :-) Alexis Login to Reply Chris Green Date: 8/30/2019 4:33:00 PM Thank you so much Alexis. You are right, that is all that matters.

Sandra Adams Date: 8/30/2019 1:40:00 PM Beautifully penned and great choice these four lines stand on their own, Yhen again I am sure each of your poems had four lines of beauty that would stand alone :) hugs Login to Reply Chris Green Date: 8/30/2019 1:44:00 PM Thanks Sandy. I just figured I'd pick a fun one to enter.
