~ Cliché? ~ Come tell me a cliché what would that be? Would the words still shine with utter beauty? Is it a cliché if the words ring quite true? What if I said that I really loved you? Just because something has been said before Doesn’t make it old and not welcome anymore The fact is I’m spun into gold by your kiss These words are real I truly mean this Cliché, hackneyed phrases I don’t think so More like words which have a poetic flow Slipping over my tongue with such smooth grace When I speak of how much I love to trace Your form, with soft and butterfly kiss How I long to hold you close like this Are these words cliché, and not worth much? Because they speak of your beloved touch Over used expression is that quite true? How can I say too often that I love you? I could say those words forever and a day And they could never be considered at all cliché These words need to be said loud and clear I have to tell you that I want you near I don’t use clichés these few words I say They are not and never will be cliché Marsha To give light to them that sit in darkness..... to guide our feet into the way of peace Luke 2:79 |

YAY!!! Oh my gosh, I couldn't agree with you more, sweet friend, I believe that when we first say those three simple words to our true love, the magic of romantic love begins, and every time after that it is said, it is not cliche but deja vu, a deja vu of eternal happiness in which all terms of endearment can be usedforever and eve again! (kiss on cheek) We all love you so much, sweet friend, your words are always fantastic to read! You have such a beautiful heart, sweet Marsha, thank you for sharing! May love and light always shine upon you! Love, Noah Eaton |

Marsha, no fair. I didn't get to post my cliched poem because of the limit and here you go beating me hands down. Kethry Here in the midst of my lonely abyss, a single joy I find...your presence in my mind. Unknown |

There is nothing cliched when it comes to love Marsha, and by the way, I love this post. Excellent as always! RS "A conspiracy of silence speaks louder than words." |

Marsha, darling girl Cliches are among my favorite treasures. May I tell you why? As I lay my head upon your sweet hey In your sweet soft lap of old word array I must admit the truth I need to say I even pray to God in my clichés. For old phrases in blazes are much fun When the meaning adds to more than the sum And why be forlorn because they are worn Old thoughts loved and known before we were born? And so all my days I will walk in haze As I blaze and I praise my sweet cliches. As I have said many times, Mushy, your poetry and your wisdom get better and better and better! And I love every word! And I love you! xo ((Marsha)) -newell Sharing God's Love through perfectlovepoetry.com |

~ Beautifully put You certainly did your homework. It's where the rubber meets the road. Somehow, "I love you" doesn't fit, does it? Fool, said my Muse to me, look in thy heart and write. [This message has been edited by Interloper (03-05-2002 01:24 PM).] |
