Poem Artwork

Sooner or later love will place us all
in the fool for love category,
in some form or another
we all end up with a foolish love story.
I was a fool for family,
but family wasn't a fool for me,
this caused me more trouble than
my eyes could see.


I couldn't take it anymore,
so I finally learned to close my door.
Romantic love lead me down
quite a few shaky roads,
a few times I ended up with
some pretty crazy toads.
Not that I was any better,
love doesn't workout
with two crazy toads together.


Ribbit, ribbit!

Love is the chosen tool
of the wise man and the fool.
The wise man holds onto the principle,
even while his butt roasts in the oven.
The fool recognizes love in others,
takes advantage of eveyone
even his own sisters and brothers.
He has no love inside,
other than the slip and slide.
Slip in the door empty handed,
slide out leaving 
his victims stranded.

Powerful and truthful write, I really enjoyed reading "Fool for Love". Futhermore,not to mention a man with such physical strength as yourself One does not mind a bit expressing his tender side...that is surely quite manly and admirable. (Well there are many things that make a man beautiful, and attractive and such characters as these are contributors dear friend!)

Sending much love and blessings your way~enjoy your 4th!
From the Heart of an Artist we are all United Through Love!

I found myself chuckling a bit as I read this, because it evoked like memories....
This is a splendid write my friend...humorous yet wise....it is a perfect blend of silliness and seriousness.
Love your imagery and the rhythm of this piece.

This is a beautiful poem. It is written by a soul that had undergone through various relationships, most of which were not smooth.
Thank you for sharing.

You highlight and sum up 'the fool vs wise man for love' in a precise and easy to understand manner, dear One...and as always, you have a sincerely felt candor about the way you think, feel, and express yourself.

Well done!
