Appricating Loved Ones....

No sugar coated fancy words

no bullshit

just simple reality

Everyone in life

has a story.

Everyone in life

has had a tragic time

of some description

behind them

or dealing with one

at the moment

 The rolls of the dice with life

You never knew what is ahead.

Just taking each other

for granted in life.

Is not a very good idea

As one day

that loved one

might just disappear

and be gone forever.

Always show

and tell them

you really love them

Appreciating all they do

Even if it's just a smile

A hug or a kiss.

That shows them that they

mean the world to you.

The words here for the loved ones are so sweet that no sugar coating is needed Dee😀!!
We need to make our beloved ones special every time....that'll just cost a smile and a warm hug and some care...no worldly fancy goodies they expect...then why not appreciating and making them feel special?!...huh! I feel like hugging my parents now😄...thanks so much for writing this Dee😊!

This is one of those easier than it looks sentiments. We all know it, but it always catches us by surprise. You are right, you have to cherish them each and every one. Great job!

So true, so true. Yours is a heartfelt and touching poem, Dee. You are so right- we all struggle, every one of us. We should always look at each other with kind eyes. Great directness, honesty, flow, balance and message. Sixth verse hits home. Well- done!
