Love by Chance by Linda L. Dowd True love may come your way by chance, and when it is least expected. It can tickle your nose ~ and curl your toes, as two hearts are connected. Love can be quite capricious, and come sneaking up on you. It can quicken your step ~ and give you pep, and alter your point of view. You may be out for a morning jog. or shopping around the mall. ~ When you flush in face as heart does race, and head over heels you fall! A warm "Hello" and a smiling face, can turn your knees to jello. A twinkling eye ~ can make you sigh, and make you meek and mellow. True love may come your way by chance, So go through each day with style. Look always your best ~ be neatly dressed. ~ Be friendly and wear a smile! ~ |

Well, my friend, it will have to be very sneaky to sneak up on me. I have my guard up, ya know. Love does indeed cause you to do many things. I haven't forgotten that much. LOL! |

Linda, This is fairly good. I'd do something with the fourth strophe. There are too many end rhymes there. It doesn't fit in with the rest. Bobby |

REJ ~ Thanks Bobby. You were 'write' about the end rhymes so I made a change. For some strange reason this poem just wasn't working for me. The ideas flowed ~ but my 'pen' didn't! Thank goodness my poems usually seem to practically write themselves. Otherwise, I might not have written so many of them! lol Linda |

True love may come your way by chance, So go through each day with style. Look always your best ~ be neatly dressed. ~ Be friendly and wear a smile! This is wonderful advice, dear Angelo! And we should do that before, during and also after love touches us ... Btw, must go dress and hurry, I am late ... Thank you for making me aware that "I am wearing a smile". And that's good, to begin the day with ... in whatever circumstances! Love you, Margherita |

We link to think that we are in control of our destiny, but love, and life in general can often seem like one big coin flip in the sky, yes. Oh and one more thing, by chance, I just happen to love this! How about that. Rich |

Look always your best ~ be neatly dressed. ~ Be friendly and wear a smile! What better advice could you give than that Linda, that was not only a wonderful romantic poem but to me it was so well written. The rhyming and the story it told will definately be one that will go into my folder. simply magic. I loved it. A big warm hug to you my dear. Lindsay |
