truly

give me a name

a name only you will know

whisper it in my ear

give me a reason

a reason to laugh

and to feel alive

give me a kiss

one that makes me believe

the world truly loves love

in spite of all the clouds and mirky waters these days .. i believe you are so right .. we want and need true love and the words to go with it. .. i think men especially need that true love to actually think of and then whisper her very special name .. wonderful sentiments in your poem .. i feel happy and a bit wistful ... so many woulda coulda s in the long forgotten past ;)

We need romance dear Lydia. And you are welcome.

As said over the years and years: 'short but sweet'. Such a few words saying what really matters and in a tone of voice that floats the airways, Lydi. Beautiful.

What a beautiful poem Lydia, the world is a place filled with cruelty, how do we know it is capable of feeling love? I enjoyed the brevity of this piece and I liked the art as well, Thanks for sharing!

[Lydia Shutter]

My pleasure!

Ahh, I've missed your words Lydi.
We all nead a reason to laugh and feel alive. It's not everyone's cup of tea, but I like nothing better than to walk about the paths outside in my penguin onesie, waddling along with a big plastic fish in my mouth. Think about it. Even if you knew it was coming, I bet it'd make you at the very least smile. 😊
And only a few run away screaming, but as we know, not everyone has a sense of humour 😊

[Lydia Shutter]

You are a riot, Lorry. If you wear your penguin onesie, I will wear my puppy dog onesie. Let's give 'em something to talk about! :) Thanks for the visit. Lydi**

[Lorry]

Deal! Just don't chse me or you might get to see what a penguin flavour slushie is like 🤔🐧😉

LOL~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Simply but powerfully represented. You just blend these words with so much of urging love, I can feel too much....!
So beautiful... I'm in love with this.

Sometimes, the only thing we need is the simple expression of love from our beloved. Nothing can beat this.

Truly expressed.

[Lydia Shutter]

Thank you very much. Lydi**

a breath of hope with this poem, lydi.
we need to know the world truly loves love because right now it appears that the world
truly loves hate. There is so much chaos and anger.
Your poem is soothing...

The world seems too angry lately. I don't know how this will change, but I hope it will. Thank you so much, Jacob. Lydi**
