Love isn’t all roses and romance
Love is dandelions and daydreams
Love isn’t being a knight in shining armor
Love is getting dirt under my fingernails
Love isn’t fancy gourmet meals
Love is sharing a bowl of popcorn
Love isn’t swooning at movie vampires
Love is smiling at your still-sleepy face
Love isn’t a great big diamond ring
Love is getting your coffee just right
Love isn’t riding Cinderella’s carriage
Love is sitting together on the couch
Love isn’t some long list of demands
Love is time spent holding hands
Love isn’t found in the places we go
Love is found in the spaces between
Love isn’t getting everything you want
Love is wanting everything you’ve got
Love is dandelions and daydreams
Love isn’t being a knight in shining armor
Love is getting dirt under my fingernails
Love isn’t fancy gourmet meals
Love is sharing a bowl of popcorn
Love isn’t swooning at movie vampires
Love is smiling at your still-sleepy face
Love isn’t a great big diamond ring
Love is getting your coffee just right
Love isn’t riding Cinderella’s carriage
Love is sitting together on the couch
Love isn’t some long list of demands
Love is time spent holding hands
Love isn’t found in the places we go
Love is found in the spaces between
Love isn’t getting everything you want
Love is wanting everything you’ve got
Is it okay to say I loved this poem?
ReplyDeleteAnd the last line is truly wise.
Yes, I'm nothing if not a wise guy. :)
ReplyDeleteI believe you've got it! This should be required reading for everyone, but especially today's teens who are sure they are "in love" after 2 days.
