The language between you and I,
Utterances of supreme pleasure
Gifts offered, once declined but I,
With all my hesitance, now I give over to you
That which proffers the inevitable
That which ensures my trust is secure
I am a hopeless cause where causes
Are concerned; my body lies at the edge
Of love’s crevasse, awaiting the fall,
Your name is on my lips

I think it was Franklin Jones who said “Love doesn’t make the world go ’round. Love is what makes the ride worthwhile.”…enjoyed your romantic verse.
And I believe it was the Doobie Brothers who said, “Without love, where would you be right now?” And I say, ‘Nothing so wonderful and so vexing in all of life than love.’ We can write about this one topic alone and never run out of things to say on the subject! Thanks always for stopping in 🙂
The producers of the Twilight movies may be calling you. This is the perfect poem for Bella to recite (or Belle, whatever the heck her name is–I obviously haven’t read the books, but I’ve definitely heard the hype). Nice piece. 🙂
Ha! I haven’t read them either! I’ll be sure to sit by the phone… 😛 Thanks always for stopping in and sharing your thoughts!
Love your new Gravatar image!
thank you! felt like a change 🙂
Love is why.
Does seem to answer the question 🙂
Nice romantic verse Sheila. I like that it is short and sweet. Keeping it shorter seems to be more effective when writing about love. I guess some of it is better inferred than said.
I guess I like the idea of saying the most with the fewest words. Must be why I like flash fiction and short stories so much.
