Another rhyming couplet "list" poem for A Love Story Poetry Contest

Sponsor:  Regina Mcintosh

_____________________________________________________________________

Love feels very fresh when you meet a guy by chance. It’s something wonderful when it brings about romance. Love walks in; he smiles at you; you don’t know what to do. but when you look again at him, his eyes are still on you! Love might find you later in his car in his embrace. You gaze into warm eyes as each other’s face you trace. Love that you have longed for reveals itself at last when your lips meet his, and time goes way too fast. Love is when you think about that guy both day and night. It feels like an obsession that could not be more right. Love like all of this is love that is unreal. Can anyone maintain the way that love first made you feel? Love can’t be forever the way that you first felt or the way his words and touch made you want to melt. Love that is obsession slips quietly away. Those with wisdom know this; they learn to make love stay, Love is true when mutual, kind, respectful and forgiving, Rekindled often, love is joy that always you’ll be living.

Good one. Reads like a good contender to me. Love is hanging in there year after year when sometimes you want to leave. Thanks for sharing this one with us and for dropping by my page. Sara K

"Love is true when mutual, kind, respectful and forgiving, Rekindled often, love is joy that always you’ll be living." So true. The infatuation one feels may be so intense, but it can die down in no time. We should have the maturity to distinguish between mere passion and true love. A beautiful entry, dear Andrea. All the best. Beautiful and meaningful

So true, my dear. So true. Love isn't just a feeling. It's also a principle. Awwwww... but who wouldn't love to have those early encounters that make one melt all over again, eh? Lovely write. You've describe the sense of true love so well.

such lovely, romantic couplets, dear Andrea! You've truly captured the essence of love and romance. Insightful words in this line:Love that is obsession slips quietly away. Those with wisdom know this; they learn to make love stay, Sometimes love (and marriage) take a lot of work for the relationship to endure. Eloquent and touching poem, Gina! Best wishes with the contest, hugs Sara

Oh sweet andrea you do couplets so well! And this is stunning and profound! I just posted for this contest toox and i must say youv given love a poetic definition that is worthy of all the accolades! The sad reality too of love youv described especially “ Love can’t be forever the way that you first felt or the way his words and touch made you want to melt.” That hits so deep! And is powerful! A fave it is for me! Best wishes for the contest

Yes I agree. Change affects everyone and everything including love. There is a big difference in comfortable and complacent. Great write and a good read, Andrea. Not around much these days but thought Id drop by. I pray all is well with you and yours.
