The Cliche' of Cliche's

"I love you"


Not to state the obvious, but ...

In all of man's utterances -

Grandest of the sum,

(Usage or depth),

There's none ...

Equal.

...and rarely does the user even know what real love truly is. Three of the most misused words in the English language. However, i do love reading your poetry, Greg:)

You are correct, Daniel, well-said, my friend ... it is a phrase that I have never tossed around casually - it means to much to not treat it with the respect and sincerity it deserves. Blessings! :-)
