Yesterday I shared one of my favourite love poems. Later I read this one which I like very much. It describes so clearly what happened when my Lovely Mr S and I met across a crowded room 58 years ago!
What I Didn’t Know Before by Ada Limón
“The best *love* poems don’t describe love or swoon for it but help it grow, right there on the page. They can be deceptively simple narratives that leave us readers paused, surprised.”

Always room for another love poem. Love has no one shape or size. Comes in so many forms and flavors. Accept and be grateful for everyone we get.
