Sometimes & "As you wish"

Oh my God now it's really time to call the doctor

Sometimes
I love you
isn't
and sometimes
it is
"Goodmorning",
or "As you wish",*

Sometimes
I love you
is in
knowing
flowers
should be
made of
chocolate
and gifts
found in
a kiss.

Sometimes
I love you
is in
all the
things he
missed.

That's a real nice throwback. A bit of nostalgia?

[Lyn Anderson]

Yes. Me loves the Princess Bride.

I LOVE the movie Princess Bride. I was living in Texas and sleeping on an air mattress the first time I watched it. Forced my hubby to watch it a few years ago. Ugh, such a good movie.
Now, done with the fangirling,
I love this poem and I love the reference.

There was a guy on a movie that he always address or reply back to a lady " as you wish " I think its the Princess Bride. " As you wish " really means he loves her ... Wow KLG cleverly masked ...

[Lyn Anderson]

Yes this is the inference in the poem, which is what I put in the poem. It is Wesley, in the Princess Bride. I know that movie nearly by heart.:)

[NeiL ArandA]

That was indeed a good movie It never gets old...

[Caradoc]

Ooo...I really liked this one. You use simplistic language but what is said contains such deep meaning. This is going into my favorites.

Bravo!

Thanks, glad you got the taste of the other one out of your palate.:)

Never did catch the Princess Bride but I like this nonetheless. My mother always used to say don't wait til I'm dead to send me flowers, I say the same and include after you've totally destroyed what little hope was left.

[Lyn Anderson]

ok well you have to watch the Princess Bride. It's funny and clever and atypically romantic, so I think you would like it :)

[Frieda P]

Ha right since I'm so atypical ;-) Will do..........

[Lyn Anderson]

Moi aussi. I consider that a compliment. Who wants to be average or normal or typical?

[Frieda P]

Wasn't whinging, just being a b***h. ;-)

Sometimes we stand in disbelief and denial when life nears the end and love is gifted to someone else. A splendid poem...:)...........

[Lyn Anderson]

Thank you. Princess Bride is "GASP" one of my all time favourite movies. Sometimes it isn't what we say but how we say it and what we do that shows others we love them.

[Sami Khalil]

True. You are welcome. The intent is the main thing............:)
