Oh, the loveliness, a burst of beauty, covered amidst the color of love
Say you’ll be mine
Say you’ll be mine
When the sun shines, one of the times
You can see, I’ll never be free
Until that time
Until that time
Say you’ll be mine
Happiness divided by two is multiplied
Love comes in too many flavors to count, don’t you think? I love my family, ever so completely; I love my children, fully, unconditionally - and way too much to comprehend… I love life, its ups, downs, and way turned around… Warm chocolate pudding, with whipped cream on top. I love a run or workout that reaches that sweet spot. You know what I mean. Splashing through puddles on a rainy summer day. I love parents who live their life out in front of their children, leading by example. The image of a baby lightly sleeping. Along those same lines, I love the smell of a baby. Oh, yes, I do. I love the warmth of a fire on a cold night. A good glass of wine. So many ways there are - and not enough time in a day to count...
What is it that you love?
Oh, the allure of all things lovely
“She cast her fragrance and her radiance over me. I ought never to have run away from her... I ought to have guessed all the affection that lay behind her poor little stratagems. Flowers are so inconsistent! But I was too young to know how to love her...”
― Antoine de Saint-Exupéry, The Little Prince

Don't ever forget what wonderful world we live in, people. Let's hold hands around the globe and make this earth really spin. Some days, it is not as easy to see, so we must try harder to give everyone the proper focus.
Later that night
I held an atlas in my lap
Ran my fingers across the whole world
And whispered,
"Where does it hurt?"
It answered,
"Everywhere"
"Everywhere"
"Everywhere"

Wonderful poetry, and it is always a pleasure to read your posts. So much of love is so universal. You'd think it was an easy question to list what you love but sometimes it feels difficult to leave anything out.
Disc golf, rocks, bugs, flowers, family, crypto, algorithms, unusual geological events (well, provisionally),... LOL, the list could go on and on.
I agree! I know exactly what I love, but then there are things that I love that are not apparent even to me, unless I take it out and examine it in my head. Is that love also if I have think about it. I would say yes but I'm sure the others would say no. I see that you have a nice list going on! I am forever grateful for my life and for the opportunity to be able to share my words and Thoughts with others.
I wish you a wonderful day!

Oh yeassss! Thanks for remembering the tag! I have mine in the works. I had to finish of Market Friday and the said link before i get further in trouble!
Sepia sure casts a sweet glow over everything, much like your lovely words do to your fans...A nice glass of wine and snuggling in front of a fire is what dreams of heaven are made of. You rock the prose and the pics, Princess.
Thank you! Fire? Check. Wine? Check. Pavi in the background?? Check. Check.
Get that sepia up there old guy! I had nowhere to link it to. I'll just let it sit here until somebody comes along and snatches it. You have become quite the dtube aficionado, haven't you? Have you forgotten how some of us like to read a post now and then? Although, if I were you, I would probably keep on doing the videos because they are way more profitable.
!tip
Pfft I was a video guy before Steemit. Over 1000 YouTube gems are out there. One point eight million views and many, many viscous comments from women LOL.
Yes, yes... Mr. old-guy-videos.One point eight million vicious comments later, you still forge ahead. Bravo! :))
That totally deserves a !tip

That is pretty amazing, you have been very busy in videoland. Plus, many many viscous comments from the lasses...kind of like sweet syrup and molasses and such. You be da man.

Gorgeous flowers and beautiful words, would have made a greta post but slipping in a bit of sepia, with that cool looking bridge was the icing on the cake
!tip
Well thank you! You always leave me such a kind reply that it's really hard to not tip you for it. But, I do show a bit of restraint now and then.
Oh you know how it is with the rain outside and my fireplace on, it sort of waxes poetic. But now, the sepia, I sort of needed to do because there's nothing worse than seeing an old man pout. LOL
I'm so bad about not getting these challenges on the right day. That seems so unorganized of me! Well I hope you are relaxing and enjoying your weather or not! I'm just going to assume that all is going to be well in the Northeast. I hope you have a great night!
!tip
Now and again, well that may well be debatable LOL
Ohh yes the Old Man pouting is not something we want LMAO
The snow has just started and now there saying 1 to 3 Inches so it wont be too bad and I got everything done out of the house that I needed to do this weekend done today so its all good for me
Now the ice on Monday could be interesting but lets deal with that on Monday
Have a Super Sunday
Oh!! Ice! Ice, baby! You know you want a little, said nobody ever!
LOL well maybe someone said it in a song but other than that I have never heard anyone say let it freeze let it freeze lOL
Hehe

Nice poetry and stylish flowers photography. I also love my family and others as like you. Good time for you all time.
Thank you so much. Life is beautiful. Have a wonderful day.
Thanks for the warmth and love that is being generated from this post. love and hugs
It is a pleasure. I hope you have a most wonderful day!
Thank you very much, @dswigle for your "SAM" post! You just told us something about you ... you're used to love. Love many! As for flowers, look what Jacques Brel says:
I brought you candies because the flowers are ... perishable

Oh, thank you! My Dutch is rusty, but, I get the understanding of it! I appreciate the music and the lovely comment!
Thank you!

It's one of my favorite songs.

Wow that's the most lovely post i have seen today beautifully written :D
Thank you so much. That is so kind of you to say! I hope you have a most wonderful Sunday!
You always have such meaningful, well written prose. And...what do I love in this world? Wow, that's a pretty wide open one. Though a warm fire, good movie, pizza and root beer is right up there. Hmm... I think being with family is number one. Whenever visiting with them, it is quite a special time. Almost a high. I used to say playing pickup basketball, but I don't do that anymore. Too much time in the woods tearing up my knees. I'd have to ponder the rest. Though just observing all the funky, fun tiny parts of life is right up there too. Then photographing them and writing about them. Wow, there is a lot to like in this world. Well, I hope your Sunday is a good one, and it's not too cold there yet. I read you might get some -30 stuff. Yucko x 10. Stay warm, and Cheerio(s)
