TWO KINDS OF LOVE

Love comes in a myriad of shapes and sizes in countless forms both large and small… that I could’t possibly in one poem… communicate them all… But as we head into this holiday season I imagine we need love more than we ever needed it before… So today I bring you 2 definitions of love: one from Tommy who is 6… and one from Maryann…who’s 4. Love, according to Tommy…(I’ve added in the rhyme) is when an old lady and a old man are still good friends even though they’ve known each other…for a long, long time. Maryann defines love in a totally different way… It’s when you’re pet dog licks your face, she says even though you’ve left it home alone all day. And so my wish for you is simple… that sometime before you life is done… if you haven’t already felt Tommy’s or Maryann’s love… you will have experienced…at least one.
