May December Romance

Cold winter, sprouting spring, seasons they do not agree Our love's defined inessential, citizens they do not agree They talked of money and status - her intentions of love Happens in a heartbeat - whatever reasons they do not agree Have you ever been in love where you're blinded and equal? Conflicting to compatible - horizons they do not agree For my eyes are growing old and gap is too wide I was accused and she was judged, our emotions they do not agree However, we'll sing and dance like nobody's watching Better to be hated for than to break a person they do not agree.

Arden dear you must decide if NOT AGREE is your repeated phrase all the words before it MUST RHYME ex: line 1 the word before NOT AGREE is DO, so in line 2 [WILL doesn't rhyme with DO] try repeating the whole phrase THEY DO NOT AGREE use seasons as your rhyming word, you'll have a lot of choices then. REASON, SEASON, TREASON,shun, begun, undone - it's ok if its not perfect rhyme] let me know if you want me to wait while you work on it okies? Light & Love

Den: I greatly admire how you can stretch your writing across different forms while not sounding contrived or tortured. I read this one several times because there's so much going on. The poem evokes well the craziness of love.

Love is blind as they say! Its a spark we can't tell where to strike and sometimes, its drives you crazy when you found out that you fall in love to someone whom you are not imagining of. Age, status, race, color and differences will be taken out of the list, so long as we experience the, "Magic of Love". Love,love,love! :-) - Den
