John Loving Iii Poet Rhyme

Messengers Sent

xoxo these are messengers of love
xoxo lovers end their letters with a x and o

someone who's intereste is just to flatter
their message is simple looks do matter

but if a true lover has the time
they'll write a poem or a rhyme
maybe send it as a valentine
a message that is oh so fine

three little words written on a note
messengers taking care to devote

flowers and candy are in demand
they look so surprising in ones hands
yet the message is easy to understand
"You make my life more than grand."

all it takes is a little call
and from your voice some love will fall
like rain on a seed in a heart
the message is the sunshine
that gives it a start

but there is one sure thing
that's the best messenger in the land
never under estimate the power
of holding hands
not much more in love can compete
because without the physical touch
the message is incompleat

Phyllis Babcock February 24, 2009 at 2:17 PM Yes, a touch has a powerful message and so do the lips. Candy and flowers are tokens but true love does not need tokens. God Bless Phyl

Carolyn Devonshire February 13, 2009 at 7:07 PM John, you truly seem to understand the meaning of "love." This is so timely for Valentine's Day, which I'll spend with a cat. He loves me, but he doesn't bring me candy. Thanks for your kind words on "The Mountain." Best wishes for Valentine's Day. Carolyn
