Love

This poem is from Autumn Leaves:

Love, like a garden, needs vigilant weeding.

Love, like a fire, requires constant feeding

To keep it in order and burning brightly.

 

Love, harsh words can often shatter.

Love, which wrong action can tatter,

But sharing and compromise bind it tightly.

 

Love is not honored by corridors of time.

Love requires daily attention to make grow sublime,

And words spoken in haste bring feeling contritely.

 

Love is soft spoken, building no dissension.

Love is feelings and touching, with full comprehension.

Many words often lose their savor; use sparingly, but nightly.

    been discussed for decades. Wonderful stuff, just great!

    • Thank you for your compliment. Glad you like my blog. My host is http://www.wordpress.com, which has free themes and lots of online guides. I used Mystique, which I modified, using the guides. It is reasonably priced. You might want to check it out. All you have to do is “follow the bouncing ball.” It is very easy to do. No coding knowledge is required. Follow your passion and blog. Write it down and get it out there! Happy blogging! Enjoy your day! πŸ™‚

  3. Please let me know if you’re looking for a article author for your weblog.

    You have some really great articles and I feel I would be a good
    asset. If you ever want to take some of the load off,
    I’d really like to write some articles for your blog in exchange for a
    link back to mine. Please blast me an email if interested.
    Regards!

  4. Aw, this was an incredibly nice post. Finding the time and
    actual effort to create a top notch article… but what can I
    say… I put things off a whole lot and never seem to get nearly anything done.

  7. I’ve been browsing online more than 4 hours today, yet I never found any interesting article like yours.

    It is pretty worth enough for me. In my opinion, if all website owners
    and bloggers made good content as you did, the internet will be a
    lot more useful than ever before.
