Susan Gentry Poet Rhyme

Love

Love is deep caring beyond any other

Offers respect and trust to another

Verifies by putting loved ones first

Emotional bonding to quench life's thirst

Haley Fisher August 16, 2018 at 7:57 AM Susan, I really liked this, especially lines 2 and 3. I wish more people understood what love means and lived by it. Easy to say the word another thing to act and show it. Susan Gentry August 16, 2018 at 3:37 PM That is so true. Many think of it as something to get and not give. Or that it just happens and thrives or doesn't thrive on its own. Thank you. Glad you like it.

CayCay Godwin August 10, 2018 at 8:08 PM I thought how to grab love with only four letters? Then your last line delivered romantic love as though that line contained infinite letters for description. A GEM. Poetry hugs ... CayCay (Oh, I see you won a stinking contest (kidding) - congratulations!!) Susan Gentry August 10, 2018 at 9:37 PM Lol yes, thank you. You're so funny.
