Love is what we all seek to touch, feel, experience... live. It can be a roller-coaster ride that is for sure but it is a ride worth taking and one everyone such get to experience. I enjoyed your definitions of what love is and what it means to you and enjoyed your singing off couplet... So true!

Love is- reading your beautifully written poem. That was very well thought out and flowed nicely with a wonderful rhythm and had a nice feel to it. Thanks for the enjoyable read!

Excellent Poem! The author's words are strong, creative and
thought provoking. The reader pondered on the words and
theme of this poem. The artwork is perfect and compliments
this poem.

Comment from Ogden
You make a strong case for the controversial subject of love.
If readers resonate to it, you might even chalk up some converts.
There is a line I think you should reconsider: "Love is daring and quite wild." (That sounds more like a one-night stand.)

Comment from Robbie Yates
I enjoyed this a lot. I love how each pair of lines is self-contained, but together they tell the beautiful story of growing up, finding love and a career, raising children, and then seeing them lead their own lives. Beautiful work.

Thank you I must be able to improve somewhere as another 4 stars if you can offer suggestions that would be great and very helpful****kahpot

Apologies - Kahpot. I wish there was a 4.5 star rating on this website. I am still getting used to the rating system and reviews. I did find a small typo - "truth without a lie" has two spaces in between "a" and "lie" - and a tiny thing that could be used to improve your poem would be to consistently use the beautiful rhythm that occurs in so many of your 7-syllable lines. I think having that consistent rhythm would make your poem exceptional.

Thank you very much I shall correct that one****kahpot
Comment from bob cullen
I think you've summed LOVE up very well. Though I may have added two lines.
Love is doing whatever you're told
Obedience ensures you get to grow old.
Great poem Kahpot

Well said by the way it is very hard writing this while I am laughing, you should write one along these lines very humorous****kahpot

Actually I once wrote such a poem. After showing it to my wife I spent several months in intensive care.
Yes Dear
Never argue with Nanna
You will never win that fight
Even when you?re sure she?s wrong
It will turn out that she?s right
Don?t go running to Poppy
He will never take your side
Promised all those years ago
To love and obey the bride
He has now learned the secret
On how to control his fear
He discovered the best response
Of course you?re right, yes dear
And if one day you find out
She has finally got it wrong
Might be best to take a trip
To the moon like Neil Armstrong
Seven days might be enough
For her blood to settle down
Just be careful what you say
Do not try and play the clown
Retreat?s not a backward step
When confronted by a sneer
Survival is what matters
So just smile and say, yes dear
Try and soothe her wounded pride
But do it with gentle care
Maybe a nice compliment
?Bout the colour in her hair
Tell her grey is all the rage
In the women?s magazines
And mention how she fills out
Her size sixteen denim jeans
Remember if things go wrong
There is always Aussie beer
Offer her one, she?ll say no
Whatever you want, yes dear

You have won me, hope there is more to find****kahpot
Comment from Giddy Nielsen-Sweep
I'm not an expert on this kind of poetry but it seems very nice to me now. Your rhyming is excellent - the meter is more uneven though, in fact there is no meter so I guess this is part of the style. The message is sweet, Giddy

I love how you explored the different definitions and descriptions of love. It is a refreshing poetic style, although the picture for my personal opinion is too abstract to complement the message. But I enjoyed reading your work. Well done.

I don't recall reading the first version of this work, but I think this one is quite good. You have covered all the points about love that I could possibly think of and then some. Yes, love should be like your poem, complete. Best wishes.
