    Poem Commentary

    Know what's true - Listen to your heart,

    Learning To Love

    What is Love?
    But merely a chance,
    That only a few dare take.
    A game of trust -
    Which one can master,
    If willing to forgive mistakes.

    Love and Learn -
    And learn to love,
    Taking one day at a time.
    Know what's true -
    Listen to your heart,
    Taking note of what you find.

    Once you've learned -
    And only then,
    Can you give your heart away.
    Once you've given -
    And only then,
    Will love then come your way.

    What is Love?
    I've yet to learn -
    But, I think I have a clue.
    I bet it feels -
    Like the way I feel,
    Whenever I'm with you!

    Yes, I'm still learning.
    Learning to Love.

    truly a learning experience one found in so many way, shapes and forms that I think we never stop learning this lesson.

    Thanks Angel ... I agree - Love can be many things, ie; wonderful, difficult, confusing, unavoidable, undying, etc ... But, it can take many attempts before we get it right. Such is love .... Thanks again, Ken

    Thanks Mal! Hmmmm you pose some very good questions... I don't think I'd linger in limbo though .. I'd probably stop looking for it and see if it found me ... if that didn't work ...there's always E-Harmony LOL :) Thx again Ken

    Thanks Terra - I'm happy you enjoyed this one. I wrote this when I started to date again, after my divorce. It sort of helped me to understand myself and what I needed to know .. and I'm still learning. :) Thanks again friend! ... Ken
