The Love of Two People

The love of two people is the root of a family To love is to Believe To love is to care To love is to have faith To love is to trust To love is to understand To love is to stand by each other in sickness and in death 8/28/2014 Yes, this is my first poem. I started showing an interest writing poetry because of a cousin, Lucilla Carrillo (Lucy). She would ask me what I thought of her writing. I have grown since then.

A lovely first poem and you have been a sincere and sweet person and poet on here... Poetry soup would be lost without you... so much has happened in six years.. how life and poetry changes.. This was not really a contest, it was an opportunity to showcase your first poem and I am glad you entered. Thank you.

A beautiful debut poem, Eve. As was told me once, any poem that can use love that many times is a winner in my book. A truly loving testimony this poem is. I look forward to opening the vault to your prodigious collection of poetry. This is my first foray, and it was very spiritually fulfilling. Love and peace to you.
