Love Doesn't Require Things!

Please read very slow...............She said..... I don't need your poetry With words that rhyme..... Just hold hands with me From time to time You don't need a reservation.... To keep in touch Just say, you love me That's good enough I didn't hold my hand out For your golden ring Just to feel your hand in mine Means everything.... I don't need your diamonds, Fancy gifts and such Just say, you love me That's good enough Chorus: You don't have to be a Shakespeare Or another Hemingway..... Those words. that you're thinking Just write them... in your eyes and on your face I don't need a recitation Before you feel my touch Just say you love me That's good enough Protected by copyright All rights reserved

Chuck, I think this is your best write that I've seen, perfect phraseology and flow and rhyme. This would be easy to set music to, I can already hear it in my head. Send it off to Nashville, it's that good!

My thanks to you John! Your comment is so appreciated! I have the complete song finished and will hopefully get around to posting it? Wouldn't it be great if the soup had a melody or music category? We could tune for the moon or b flat in the round! Write on John!!

Perfect in every way!!! Love isn't material things- holding one close. It is an emotion so deep and strong!!! Very much so! I wish to save this in my favorites. Beautiful words from the heart. ~ Brandy
