Is It Natural (At All)

a sonnet

Is it natural

To feel this way

To think about you

Every day

Is it natural

To want your kiss

So very much

That it hurts like this

Is it natural

In any way

To wish I had that

For all my days ...

`cause it certainly

Feels like it is

So very romantic. A poem suitable for a Valentine! Lydi**

[Desert Knave]

Thanks Lydi** !!

[MCS]

Lovely flow to these lines. I guess that’s why so many songs and verses are written on the subject of love. Nicely done!

[Desert Knave]

Thank you so much !

[Kelly Scheppers]

We are prisoners of love, even in those tender years of high school. There is no logic to comprehend when the heart wants what it wants. Good to see you, Jim.

[Desert Knave]

Thanks ! Yes, logic fails where the heart's concerned.

[Carlos Lorenzo Estrada]

I enjoyed your poem because it's flow echoes it's meaning. In a natural sense that is. Much like love. Wonderful work on this poem. CLE
