Notes About The Poem

The Roots To Love

The Roots to Love

I poked a little hole
Just an inch into the grown
I dropped a seed in it
It's one that you just found
I hope that it grows up
To be a mighty tree
So I can carve a heart
With our names for all to see
This tree will be the tallest
With limbs that reach the sky
and everyone shall know our love
as they come walking by
and even though we pass away
Our tree will ever grow
And you will always be my gal
as I shall be your beau

Hi Jerry. This is a great little poem that stands as tall and strong as a great love should. You put this one together with heart and soul and I could feel it in my heart. Very well written, my friend. I have posted a new poem if you are interested.... Robert.

A fine romantic poem this is Jerry. The word interplay never distracted from the subject yet the love and romance is vibrant in each line. Loved it. 7.:-) Kim
