Love often meets us at unexpected places and/or times. And when it flourishes into something as deep and beautiful as marriage, it’s a whole new experience — well, it’s not with its lows at times. Thanks for reminding us about this love.
Love is free ranging
Unshackled by time and place
Strikes without warning

Hello Uzo,
Good of you to drop by with your thoughts.
Marriage is a whole new experience – true 🙂
All good wishes, my friend,
Eric
We all need that magical contact where cupid is at full works, followed by many lessons to appreciate, understand and sustain the relationship. Such wondrous blessings we discover when we realize he/she was a Godsend to make our life complete at most time.
Cupid keeps busy
Shoots arrows at lovers’ hearts
Gives life and not death

Hello Windy dear,
You’re right. Easy to fall in love but it takes much effort to nurture, sustain and grow it. Growing old together in love is truly God’s gift.
Happy Valentine’s my dear,
Eric

Hello Ina,
Yes, we need to get the basics right.
Happy Valentine’s
Eric
Cleverly worded to illustrate an emotion that was originally intended to lead to a lifetime of happiness and shared joy through to the next generation. Unfortunately it is becoming rarer for that kiss to be honoured through a lifetime these days Eric.

Hello Ian,
You and I come from a generation that (mostly) live by certain norms, especially with regards to matrimony. Values change. You’re right – it is unfortunate.
Thank you for your kind words, re the haiku,
Eric
All seek blessed lives
Takes maturity, hard work
Share love, receive love

Love is a robust bloom but also delicate, I reckon.

Huge oaks from tiny acorns grow!
Seeds of life and love
Some sprout, even less flourish
