Lukewarm Love

To keep warm not hot
I’m pushed on the back burner
Lukewarm love turns cold

Eileen Such a wonderfully written poem of a love that fizzled out. You need to find someone to make that flame high again. thank you for the great comment on my No Exit poem.

Love should never be lukewarm. It requires the sun for its heat...not a microwave. Damn fine job!

YOU ARE RIGHT!!!!! Hmmmmmmm....Oh dear...I was thinking of an old fashioned stove....Yes, I have read a series by Janette Oak about the Canadian and American frontier women having to push the pots onto the back burner to keep the food warm....I was alluding to that. ;) Sun would work.....Thanks for stopping by, Drake. :)

Just turn on that back burner, you will be hot in no time.

Hmmmmmmm....As the poem goes....the writer has been pushed to the back burner....Someone else should do the turning on....don't you think? ;) I am constantly in that state, anyway...so, perhaps a little cooling off will be good. ;) You already have me smiling. Thank you, Richard.
