It is fragile,
complex yet agile.
Hearts and minds entwined.
Magically and wonderfully designed.
Delicate and strong like a daisy chain,
kisses that taste as sweet as champagne,
blossoms like flowers in the Spring.
Instill happiness, and people sing.
Song lyrics that pull on heartstrings.
It encompasses so many things.

Getting Serious About Comedy (Part I)
If I were asked to remark on my life and the childhood that paved some road leading me to this point, I would have to say something about all the funny people who surrounded me for the last 26,872 days (and counting). Somewhere along that road, I became a big fan of laughter and the comedy that spawns it – and, I mean not only my own laughter, but the laughter of others, some of which I have actually been responsible for inducing.

Really good!! Loved the rhymes!
A delightfully sweet poem. I especially like: “ Hearts and minds entwined. Magically and wonderfully designed. Delicate and strong like a daisy chain,”💖
This is beautiful, Babs
I remember those days :)
I love a poem with a great rhyme scheme and good syllable count. You beyond succeed in both areas! Excellent work, Babs!

Wonderful poem
Beautiful poem!
Lovely description and poem about amore.
“Delicate and strong” yes - nicely put Babs. 😊
This is beautiful. Well done, my friend.
Well-wrought, Venerable Babsha! Love exists, I think, independently in nature as a blind force, but when people share and cultivate it, it beautifies their experience. Here, in your short poem, we have an excellent example!
Such beautiful wording, Babs! What a gorgeous love poem:)
Love it, Babs!! "Hearts and minds entwined" reminds me of John Donne's love poems--very metaphysical!
'Tain't it wonderful when love remains lyrical?
Awww, this was so wonderful and beautifully penned! Loved it so much!
When it comes to love, its descriptions are endless and that’s what you have portrayed here in this beautiful poem ❤️
Love this poem, and the last line especially. Love indeed encompasses many things...isn't so straightforward...but is still love! Happy Valentine's, Babs!
