Love is Magic
Love is magic, magic is love,
it's a magician, and his white dove.
It's an ocean, but above all,
it's a mighty waterfall.
It's the stars upon the sky,
it's the wings by which you fly.
It's the one right thing, you see?
Tell me, do you love me?

Hi, StoneLion! Thank you for letting me know that I got the wrong witch.
I guess I didn't know which witch to use, and in a way it's funny that I had written "by witch you fly". Thanks for the comment, and the applause! Jim

Very nice, Uncle! I like the rhythym of the piece and I'm totally blanking on the word...similar to palendrome...whatever is happening in the first line I really like it. I think you might have the wrong "witch" though. Either way, a great piece that's lot of fun to read!

Excellent
I love this poem!! Excellent write it is so sweet and goes straight to the heart.
Feel free to share my poem with your friend I hope it does help losing a parent is always hard. It was really hard for me because my mom was my life and at that point in my life I hated my father and had to be with him but blah blah blah anyway I am glad you enjoyed it and thanks for sharing. Take care and God bless. ~Angel~ -
Excellent work!!!
Star, I really enjoyed reading this work. The love/nature comparisons were beautiful. Created the magic imagery that love will do to people. Thank you for the wonderful pictures you brought to my mind's eye as I read through. It flowed like the waterfall of which you spoke. I especially love the last line, "Tell me, do you love me?". It finished it off perfect.

Hi again, Aandolin. For me magic and love is synonymes. About the cliché "fly/sky", I know it's lame, but I feel I used it differently, relating "fly" and "sky" to the feeling of love/magic. And yeah, that was a long comment, Aandolin, should bag you two points easily, for being first to comment...
-
i like this alot, i think its amazing that somthing this short can capture my attention and make me read it over and over again, i like the realtion of magic to love, even if thats not how i feel these days, its a good connection, i also like what youve done with imagery, again i say this alot but your word choice could be sligtly more creative, but it worked out good anyway, i did see one cliche thing, fly and sky are one of the most cliche rhymes in love poetry, although the way you did it made it less cliche (not saying something like, " i fly high, in love like the sky), so congradulations i think this is the longest comment ive ever givin, have a good day, aandolin
