Real Love

I had just finished reading the poem
about love and the stars and the wine
beautiful love-like
I turned to you to say
“I don’t get it” (as always)
We smirked
Then you looked at me
Serious, important, startling blue eyes
And you said, “I was thinking,
About your washer fluid.”

I just snarfed my tea! (ouch!) This perfectly describes my marriage! LOL. In a GOOD way. Happy Saturday! đŸ™‚

*snort* Spoken like a true member of the Y chromosome club (Ned, I assume?).

susan, as you know I questions “what is real love,” on my Facebook. This comes at a good time for me.

Thanks!

Love is what you do after a while, isn’t it? I try to tell Ben, it’s a verb, not a feeling.

Very good observation!
