Love is just like dreamland
Fantastic when it’s there
But like the longest nightmare
When no one seems to care

To me it is worth it all..ups and downs...like a roller coaster, I love riding roller coasters...better to ride than wait all your life standing in line!

Happy Valentines Day!

love and hugs

Open your eyes, open your mind, open your heart, let me come in and show you love.....~ARH

Dear Romantic heart, great to see you here tonight, my night, your day, love would be too simple if it did not have the ups and downs I am sure, I think, maybe, enjoy your ride my friend and have some fun.

Sincerely
Rick

Definately true - The tough part of being vulnerable I guess. Even though its worth being vulnerable for.

Hello Rick

You words touched my heart and spoke many truths.  I wish for you much love and happiness my friend.

"Love is the greatest of all cures -
not least for loneliness
Finding a cause or purpose beyond
ourselves gives us a vital sense
that life is worth living -
whatever our personal circumstances,
and whether or not we have
someone to come home to"

Take care my friend

Sue

I am in motion
I am blue
Love is an ocean
I'm anchored in you

Every moment is what we make of it, whether with some one, or alone.  People run from being alone...and I think I may have a guess as to why...

They hear the uncommon sounds of their own growth...or stagnation.  Again...it is all what one makes of their situation, and time.

A lot to think about in this one, Rick.  Very good, Sir.

Dear Rick, yes how true this is and you say it succinctly and beautifully.

Beyond our aching hearts, LOVE just IS. An endless pond of divine love where all the thirsty souls can quench their thirst.

But we need someone to hug, to care for, to express this love divine. I agree.

Have a happy Valentine's day, my dear poet friend.

Love, Margherita

I could't have said it better, Rick...

Here's hoping we both have someone who cares...( if not today, then tomorrow)
