The Gentle Soft Side of Love

There's a gentle soft side of love It appears the ladies prefer Words are just as important as actions More cerebral that's for sure Learned this a very long time ago Slow and gentle is what counts A tally-ho method of ride 'em cowboy They don't dig it by all accounts Ya gotta be tender and coo like a dove Say stuff like, “Sweetie, you're the best!” 'Amazing' is the word that comes to mind The results of this simple test It's not that us guys are not aware It's just we're overtaken by passion Which is not, in reality, a totally bad thing Means we think your style's in fashion But soft and gentle it is from now on Don't need to ram it down my throat I get it, I get it, for goodness sakes I'm not a stubborn old goat © Jack Ellison 2014

Boy! With Dragon...no soft side here! Fire, stomping around, demanding every thing! Yep, Dragon just woke up from his nappy and is upset cause he fired his favorite blanky! Again! But don't fear Mama's here! I bought everyone in the country! I'll dry his tears and tell him... not to worry! The washing machine will make it all better! I know! I know! It's not nice to lie! But then I take a pile... to the witch. And for some of Grandpa Trolls cooking... she will make them whole! I'm so clever!

I've been taught this as well my friend! All my life I've been taught the nature of a woman's heart and the way to get there is through passionate kindness, that's gentle with wondrous words and tenderness...that's true, there's no need to be stubborn about love, that's another thing I've learned completely, to have real compassion and true love! I really enjoyed reading this amazing poem here this morning my friend! What a glorious piece, Great Work!!
