Webshots Photo ~*~ Love is like a Spring flower garden that must be tended with care For it to thrive as it should to not fail from neglect of repair Love has to be planted there within the hearts of two Then if the couple desires it to grow there are ways for them this to do The love as flowers should be treated gently for very tender are they Always needing a loving touch for them to endure and stay Roots of the plants will get crowded if weeds are allowed to stay Like cares of this life can hinder love if we allow them to along this way So just as the Spring flowers grow from the kiss of the morning dew Our love will grow also with tender touches from me and you We will always think of loves fragility as along our path we go And know the two of us have the ability to nurture our love and help it to grow ~*~ |

Ethel, "So just as the Spring flowers grow from the kiss of the morning dew Our love will grow also with tender touches from me and you We will always think of loves fragility as along our path we go And know the two of us have the ability to nurture our love and help it to grow" These are lovely words. Enjoyed the sentiment and truth. Hugs and love, Pat ..without surrender, be on good terms with all persons.. |

Well written, and utterly true. And a side note: If all rhymes in our poetry here at PIP looked like these -- We will always think of loves fragility as along our path we go And know the two of us have the ability to nurture our love and help it to grow -- I'd read more of them. ~~(¸¸¸¸ºº> ~~(¸¸¸¸ºº> ~~(¸¸ ¸¸ºº> ~~~(¸¸ER¸¸ºº> |

(smiles) Oh Ethel, this is so very true, sweet friend, and I know Gary is always going to set butterflies flittering in your garden and kissing the buttercups and tulips always and have fountains pouring water for all your blessing flowers to drink merrily! (kiss on cheek) Yay, gardens need tending and love is always the way to go, God Bless You, we all love you so much! You have such a beautiful heart, sweet Ethel, thank you for sharing! May love and light always shine upon you! Love, Noah Eaton Underneath your clothes, there's an endless story |

Pat, thank you. I'm glad that you enjoyed it. . Seymour, thank you. I'm glad that you liked it, too. . Nancy Lee, thank you. I'm glad that you liked the flowers. . Ed, you'll never know how much I appreciate you saying that. Like I've said before, my favorite kind of poetry to try to write is rhyme, with the rictameter running a close second. One of these days, I'm going to learn to combine the two. Thank you for liking it. . . I appreciate all of you so very much. Ya'll are such an encouragement to me. Thank you all very much. Heart hugs to all of you, Ethel |

(oh, and friend, I really like the poem that you wrote from being inspired by this one..That's so special for you to do that for me. Thank you, Littleone.) . Karilea, thank you. I like that... "blossomed into beauty". . Noah, thank you. I love the replies you give. They are poetry within themselves. So pretty. . . I appreciate all of you so much, my friends. I thank all of you very much, too. Heart hugs to you all, Ethel [This message has been edited by garysgirl (05-10-2003 01:23 PM).] |

Ethel, this is a very lovely poems, and the words ring so true.... Love is a garden in which we have planted seeds of affection. The way love grows would depend on how we tend the garden. We do not have to have a variety of flowers, or bushes of roses. That's going to be too distracting. If it's OUR garden, even a single stalk of Sunflower would look just as beautiful. _,,,^.^,,,_ |

Mon Cherie, thank you for your reply. It could be a poem in itself. And this is so true..... We do not have to have a variety of flowers, or bushes of roses. That's going to be too distracting. If it's OUR garden, even a single stalk of Sunflower would look just as beautiful. I appreciate your reply. Hugs, Ethel |
