Oh, Please Dare

10~14~2016 Oh, Yes Please Dare Trust in love and just let go… I will show you a view through a rainbow. Yay! You took a chance and let go of the reins. You are a rare soul and a treasure to behold. A human still brave enough to risk others’ disdain. You made a choice to accompany me, so bold. For there is no excitement or joy without risk of pain. You may see sights which support your wildest dreams I’m told. one who has not failed not willing to take a risk may live to a ripe old age so safe yet mundane what drags they bore me so dare to see through a rainbow Three Style II – Poetry contest

I really like this, Jill. Choosing a dare over the mundane. Wish I had more courage to do that in my life sometimes!!

Love poses many risks along with pains. I can vouch for that, so your poem hit home at once. BTW, it's "reins" not "reigns." These two homonyms are easily confused. Many thanks for the stop by and best wishes in your writing endeavors./ M

Had I not taken a great chance, I'd not be happily married to a beautiful wife and have our wonderful and handsome son. I've never written in this poetry form but as a poet I can see that this is truly exceptional poetry. You've inspired me to maybe write in this form some future day! ADDING THIS GEM TO MY FAV LIST
