Just Around the Next Bend

Love is out there waiting to be discovered It usually occurs when least expected You can be cruising along quite nicely, happy with life When all of a sudden WHAM! It hits you right between the eyes We are seldom prepared for it That indescribable feeling of joy A feeling that turns our whole world upside down, inside out We lose all sense of time, about who we are, where we're heading We start acting like love struck teenagers again Parading around like peacocks Unabashedly displaying that age old dance of love And when our love is returned We fall into this indescribable euphoric state Hoping and praying that it will never end Love is out there... maybe it's just around the next bend! © Jack Ellison 2014

Love is also companionship, enjoying their company, and a quiet night of snuggling when you're both worn out, in front of the TV. This part Dragon understands. Finally he gets it! He has all his penguins snuggling with him as he watches a movie. Well, He had to get something, eventually! LOL... OOPPS! Is that steam I see? After a busy day a little popcorn for all will cure that. He'll get his very own bowl of course. (I call it his horse trough but not out loud. Don't want to spoil the moment)
