A very ordinary love described in a very ordinary love poem.

We did a lot together.

We did the things that lovers do
- we walked hand in hand
- we waltzed in the streets

We did the things that are fun to do
- we kissed under pohutakawa by the beach
- we were nudists by mountain streams

We did the things you shouldn't do
- we popped our zits and
- made love on empty graves

And while we surfed our dreams
we smiled and laughed and
loved.

It was all very ordinary
our ordinary little love.

    I agree with the idea of ordinary love being the best too
    This poem's sweet, without being overly sweet...
    Good job

    This is really beautiful kate

    I loved how ordinary you described your love
    ordinary love means true love

    stressed and over-elevated love is fake in my eyes

    this is really beautiful and well written

    i loved your ending:

    It was all very ordinary
    our ordinary little love.

    strong conclusion

    very talented poetess..xo!"

      Yeah I never liked the fakeness in description either, for me real love is what I have, what my parents and grandparents have, story love is nice for a little while but if that was there all day every day I would feel smothered.

    Ordinary love makes me smile too. If there is one song that can make me cry every time, it's that other country song, Remember When. Ugh. *tear* Thank you for sharing, good luck!
