a word is a word is a word

by Charlie Morgan







…saying I love you
is saying Venice
merely has wet streets.


…to say I enjoy you
is to say the Earth
is just a rock in space.


…to say I live for you
is to say that water and oxygen
are convenient.




…for your smile is the heart-light
of my life’s greenhouse,
forever growing buds
of my never-ending
love for you.

You know..if you stand back and look at this poem, it almost looks like it's grinning at you! (chuckle) Silly romantics! - Roses are red / violets are blue... / ah what the hell / I'm with you! - RCatski

Romantic and tender. The sweetness and lightness of love. I like the formatting very much!

a word is a word is a word, except in this case, it's a rosebud in my heart.

Understatements so compelling when put the way you place them I find myself reading and rereading this one...lovely.

Oh Charlie. This is truly romantic. I love it. What a lucky girl your wife is.
