I—the first person pronoun—the subject
love—the noun and the verb—the action
you—the second person pronoun—the object
grammatical pedantry and fanciful analysis aside
those three words can be the most powerful—adjective
an individual can utter to another
When backed with an adjective—weighty conviction. And with evidence of actions—nouns—that match their meaning.

Cool cute hah and original dude! 😄
This is a poem that you know every author and wordsmith is predisposed to love. ⚡💙⚡
Cool take Sir Paul
Holy hell, what a nerd that guy is. This was very creative, and I truly enjoyed it. But, I couldn't help but smile (laugh) imagining sitting at a restaurant or whatever, listening to that guy.
This is a beautifully written piece! Very creative work ✨😊
Oh well done Paul. This was so unique and clever.
This was really clever Paul!!! Nicely, done!!
Oooo, this was a creative take on the challenge! Loved it! 🍩🥐
Ahhh very clever!
Beautifully insightful breakdown of one of our most important phrases! Bravo, sir!
Words that mean nothing until acted upon: nouns & verbs all wrapped in one.
Most beautiful, cleverly delivered, and stirring grammar lesson I have ever had the pleasure of receiving! In my opinion you swung for the fences and hit a homerun here! Really great work, Paul!
Love this Love poem… excellent take on the challenge ✅.
What a way to get technical about such a feeling. Good job.
A poem with heavy meaning. Love how you wrote this, Paul
