Caren Krutsinger Poet Free verse

True Love Is the Best Medicine

True love does not include an apology every minute
Without any means of improvement
True love is putting yourself out there 
Trying to outguess what your partner needs 
Giving your all to help them be the best they can be
Love is cuddling, and hand holding.
Love is a pat on the shoulder, 
Love is please and thank you

True love is found after a deep friendship has been established
True love occurs after you share a history
True love happens during times of sorrow 
When your hands brush or you share a heartfelt smile.
True love is the best medicine in the world.
True love is wanting your love to have whatever they need
True love is encouraging, 
True love is optimistic
True love is generous and hopeful and kind
True love includes a faith the other person loves you too

Tom Cunningham November 28, 2019 at 4:45 AM Very true Caren, well written. Enjoy your thanksgiving today. We have to wait until Christmas for our turkey. Tom Caren Krutsinger November 29, 2019 at 3:19 AM I skipped turkey and went straight for the BEEF. We are from Iowa where everyone eats a cow or two a week. My Thanksgiving was lovely! Enjoy your journey toward Christmas Tom!
