I love you. You are the dream I’ve held So tight! You are the love I’ve known Since birth! You have played hide and seek Oh how you love to peek… And I know you are here, On earth. You are the come and go Of life You are the groom, ready For wife You are the love I’ve held, so tight You are the light, In shadows of night. I love you. A child who wishes to dream A sound in search of scream A time in search of sound And in this, we come around. I love you. This, is all I have to give; This, is all I have, to live; Giving is what I know, to do… This, a poem, I leave, to you. This… Is love. |

"This, is all I have to give; This, is all I have, to live; Giving is what I know, to do… This, a poem, I leave, to you. This… Is love." Dang girl...'this is' for sure!! Beautiful Karilea...simply beautiful. ~Smiles & Hugs~ Poetry is not an opinion expressed... |

I read this and immediately thought... beautifully profound I am not sure if that makes sense, but that is what I thought. Enjoyed! "You sleep in the night yet the night and the silent water still so dark." |

... and I thought you could never get better ... how wrong I was! Fool, said my Muse to me, look in thy heart and write. |

Sunshine, I really like the transformation in writing I've seen in the last six months of being here. You've always had a way with words, but I believe I like these shorter poems even better than the longer ones I first read of yours, if possible. How much better could one descibe than? "You are the come and go Of life" I could have printed every lovely word here! Decisions, decisions. But no decision about taking this to the library. That's a given! Sadie |

I think you just defined that most elusive term 'love' the best way I've ever seen it defined. Nan (Pilgrim variety) |

This is love, oh yes it is. You've penned it beautifully Karilea, one to cherish.. so I'm keeping it. Mxx Beauty of the world which is soon to perish has two edges, one of laughter and one of anguish, cutting the heart asunder. |
