Wow, I love how you pair poem with painting. Is this like Haiku and Haiga where you create a poem and painting specifically for each other and they are a pair?

years ago

Love this. :) And I thought this would be the best time to give you this award too. http://theelusivescribe.wordpress.com/2013/05/05/sweetness/. Have a great day. :)

Love is giving ~
Without maybes
Without question
Without knowing
Or second guessing
♥
a beautiful
loving response
~
as a parent
I’m giving myself a green light
to doubt
second guess
make mistakes
~
sometimes
tough love
holding back protective instincts
letting my daughter
learn, fall down
a green light to make mistakes too
~
sometimes
not giving love
is giving love too ?
~
sometimes
it is difficult
helping her become independent
not smothering
her growth
~
maybe
it’s possible
to love too much ?
Ah, I see. In that respect, yes, there is room to question. Raising a child is difficult – or so my parents like to tell me ^_^. So many questions, so many grey areas. I’m sure I will cross that road one day, and I too will be in the very same position you are in :).
so many
beautiful greys
hues and colours

I’m starting to learn
to slow down
breathe
and enjoy the questions
Nice :)
I do believe that this is what true love is.
thanks
I may never understand
true love

but all I can do
is my best
and keep shining bright
Good use of tone.
thank you
for your
comment
Forgot to tell you that I love the simplicity of this… you say so much with so few words! I like that about you. I’m way to wordy, but cutting back if difficult for me… I’m just too chatty. Fabulous picture also by the way! :D
everyone
has their own
approach

sometimes
I’m too quiet …
I’m still learning
how to share
more openly

Beyond… the watchword for true love. I love it.
watchword

I like that

I’ve never heard
that before
I really cool poet and writer said,”Love gives. It’s GIVEN!!!” His name is Zoba Beta and I highly recommend googling some of his quotes, he’s blessed. He claimed every ounce of his life for his self…the only selfish thing that amounts to any good for a true individual.Your poem really brought this simple truth to life once again. Love is so simple to follow but it plays on a different field and it plays a totally different game; a game never known. In reality…it truly takes a brave individual to fully accept love’s bounty. After all, when we give that love there is NEVER a guarantee that any love will be given back our way. We cannot love and love fully if hidden motives or expectations are the real longing behind the cause.

I think that love might be different for each person…their definition, their expectations and their feelings. It’s possible that people have trouble because of that. But when two people agree…then it’s wonderful.
