Love Actually Love

Well written lad damn well written bravo

Thank you so much Liam :-))))))))))))))))))))))))))))

Really connected with this, David - and with uplifting imagery and phrases, bringing clarity to a much confused (and sometimes abused) subject. Powerful write.

Such a beautiful spill of ink… I think I'm in love with these words.
"Love is not a dish for one
We all need somebody to love"  I adored this!

Delanee.

awwwwwe thank you kindly I am glad you enjoyed this one :-))))))))

When you live long enough know that love is a verb, I have realized the simplicity of it. This could not have been worded any better. Always respect.

Love is a verb and a verb is a doing word - yes indeed :-)

thank you so much :-)))))))))))))))))))))))))

Perfect. Love is indeed the oxygen we all crave and need.

I agree 100% with you Dawnraider :-)))))))))))))))))

thank you for the visit and the wise words :-)

In stanza 2 you bring home those haptic expressions of love. I really like the window metaphor in stanza 3 and the clown car metaphor further down. Quite winsome piece. It touches my heart how much love this loving piece inspired. I'm glad to pile in with the rest. <3

coming from you that is a compliment indeed, thank you so much :-)))
