I have been challenged by Nicole from The Whispering Pen for the “Love in Ten Sentences.” I was excited, touched and intimidated by this challenge, as I haven’t written poetry in a LONG time. EEK! Especially to be challenge from such a talented poet and writer such as Nicole. Her Haiku poems depict an interesting perspective. In just a few words she has the ability to create something beautiful, touching and thought provoking. Her blog is all about sending out positive messages and is a breath of fresh air that I look forward to reading.
The challenge is to write a poem about love and title it “Love in Ten Sentences.” It must have 10 lines, each 4 words long. Every line must contain the word “love.” At the end of the poem, you must include a favorite quote about love. Then challenge fifteen other bloggers.
Love erupting like volcanoes,
Love bursting and exploding,
My love spilling within,
Love dripping and leaking,
Crevices coated with love.
Authentic love is messy,
Love you cannot explain,
Boundless love, no restrictions.
Devout love for you,
Identical love you reciprocate.
I now challenge :
