Few get enough -
most get far too much
in their gorgings upon this feast of loves
Few understand that one
is better than ten thousand;
that the pinch of salt
does far better than the ton
Few realize that there is a singular sweetness
to a love whose roots are deep
but those who grasp deliberate choices
will find love's truest being
Author notes
This is my love poem.
------------------------
We are far to ready to throw our hearts about. People say that hate is a strong word. Is not love a stronger one, and yet we toss it about with no consideration? My friends, we are meant to choose what we gives our hearts to with only the most careful of consideration. To do otherwise is to lend yourself to uncountable troubles and heartbreaks.
