~I have the upmost respect for Women and Love. This poem is not a true story but, only a dream that all women should be treated as Beautiful Human Beings and not "Objects". This is also a poem of my feelings about Love. However, everyone has their own feelings toward the subject and so, I hope no one take offense to my thinkings and thoughts and rather look at Love from someone else's perspective! Thanks for understanding.~ ~This Poem is Specially Dedicated to Amy~ ~He said to me: Oh guess what, I met someone today Did not even talk, there was nothing to say Just looked at her Beauty, looked at her face And that's all it took for my heart to race Her scent was wonderful that smelled of flowers And her stride was more graceful than that of spring showers She gave me laughs and she gave me smiles Which lit up the land for miles and miles Basically perfect without a single flaw I liked how she looked, I liked what I saw She can fly more swiftly than the dove Oh Seth Oh Seth, I think I'm in Love! ~I replied softly with laughter: No no my friend! You seem to be mislead It sounds like you just want her to join you in your bed For all you talked about was her physical looks And Beauty that's from your fairy tale books Love is so much more than what you see And if you put Love in looks, it will perhaps never be For Love is inside, beneath her eyes In her heart, in her soul and her mind is where it lies Beautiful, a Princess? Boring and Witty? You never found out if she had personality Love,my friend, should not be in force "For if Love finds you worthy, It will direct your course" We all like beauty, we all like grace We all wish for bodies with roses to trace Love is a feeling that makes up our fate And it might take a while to find our soul mate But until that happens, find many friends For they will be with you until the ends Ends of the world, ends of the earth There when friends leave and when Love is at birth Feeling for her lie deep down inside So pull them out for there's no need to hide Love is that feeling when you first wake And it is breakfast for her that you want to make You want to pick her flowers around the mid-day You want to bring her dinner on a sterling silver tray A few hours later, a kiss on the lips But can be just as good as on her fingertips You don't need her body with clothes to undress Just her gorgeous face for you to caress You don't need parties with alcohol and razz But maybe a fire in the fireplace, soft music and jazz Day after day, it is these feelings and more that do return And day after day your sould will be on fire and for her it will burn So, you're not in Love!! In fact very far! So go back to your books and wish upon that star You do like her and from there Love can grow But it will not be as smooth as the rivers flow But I'm happy for you! We all need a start! Just follow your feelings and follow your heart I think it's only once that I have been in Love And let me tell you...It's what ALL sweet dreams are made of. *The quote is from Khalil Gibrans "The Prophet" Seth Madden |

As with you last poems, great work. How on earth do you think of so many rhyming words? Whenever I am trying to rhyme in my poems I spend ages thinking of the right words, sometimes to no avail. I am not a poet, I am merely one who speaks in emotion |

one word beautiful! Regret for things you did maybe tempered by time, regret for things you Didn't do, however, is inconsolable... -------823------- |
