I don’t need a muscle bound hero
who’s too tired to love me every night.
Nor a warrior bathed in glory
who doesn’t know how to hold me right.
The best brain in the world is no use
if he doesn’t know what’s on my mind.
The world’s greatest chef cannot prepare
the food of love on which I would dine.
All I need is your sweet love for me
and that shines bright in your poet’s soul.
The light in your eyes when you see me
the only thing that can make me whole.


(Just wondering out loud what it would be like to be loved by a poet   )



I wish you every happiness and may you always have the best of the good things in life.     a brand

Very nice Dee. I know what you mean :-)

Without the experiance of love where would we be? We would have no memories to cherish.
With love it brings hurt with hurt bittersweet memories.

Dee,
Read the interests and you can tell who's single and whos not LOL men that like to shop or take walks on the beach and the ones who say they love to listen to their woman are a dead give away LOL

Dee..this is adorable..
I love the word play and the clever theme...
and being "loved" by a poet makes for some oh so lovely inspiration
