Notes About The Poem

Constance's Two Beautiful Lines Contest ~ March 2, 2025

Gift of Love

"Love tenderly given should be devotedly accepted."
                                                             ~ by poet


Love is a fragile gift to be treasured
   Never should it be questioned or measured

Lin, it is indeed a treasure. The more we can focus on that, the better life seems to be. I feel that personally. What you say is very powerfully stated and something everyone might take time to think about. Smiles!!

Brilliantly written in just two lines, Lin. I contemplated this contest for at least two seconds… TWO LINES??? Moi?

Terry, sometimes the more you contemplate what to write for short forms, the more confused I get. Just work with what comes to mind first. Your poetry lately has been too good to condense, so not to worry about shortening your writes. Thank you kindly.
