Lisa, these few lines say all that is important in your beautiful poem: "I will not ask to end on loves me // we both know I do to the end of time // thus the light of love will forever shine "// Wonderful poem, and may love always be with you.

Written from the heart! It even makes an old cynic like me go "aawww". Such a lovely piece!

I think we have all pulled the petals off of that universal flower once or twice (or more) times in our lives. Here's hoping it always blooms petals in odd numbers. Really nicely expressed Lisa. A very creative take on the loves me/loves me not theme.
