Dan Kearley Poet Rhyme

Thoughts of Love

I'm kind of a reformed hippie from the sixties
Trying to spread peace and love through my lifelong days
A messege of words that need to be shared
By everyone in so many different ways

Through all the younger days of my life
I felt I was just another pea in a pod
Until I searched through my heart for the love I was given
Then found it to be a true blessed gift from God

What can we do to show the youth of our time
That love is really more than just a word
It's a feeling that is felt from deep inside
And not some simple word that they've all heard

If you feel you haven't been shown true love in your life
Search for it and try to find it however you sincerely may
It might just be that gift that brought you into this world
So when using it share true feelings with those words you say

Red Fiery December 17, 2012 at 8:44 PM poetry is a spontaneous overflow of emotions..in the words of wordsworth...this is absolutely fine for me..no need to change...no specific rules should be applied ..no restrictions imposed. Great write!
