Love Can Be Grand --- POTD ----

In spring we come out to see life,
out from our long cold winter's nap.
Bears are so loving not wildlife.
Love can be grand.

I am your big fun bear asap,
you are my fury playful wife,
I love to see you in gift-wrap.

Tonight we need some fun nightlife,
eating fish not from a flytrap,
using my big claws not a knife,
Love can be grand.

Paula, I see this made POTD. That is a blessing but also a curse if you take the time to answer all the comments. You seem to handle this well! Your poem strikes me as about more than bears. I have my own interpretation and thank you for talking about love and how indeed it can be grand. We're wired for it and it blesses us with a fun time for sure if we have the right mindset. Smiles!!

Glad you found me. Always good to see you. Thanks for your support. Yes, this was a POTD win. It was a wonderful honor to have by Soup and my readers. My heart had a huge smile. This was written for a contest picture. I can Not get pictures to load in. It really needed the picture to understand it better. I love bears. "Smiles" today and for the weekend... Hope your day is a fun one as you write away..........
