I have been challenged to write a love poem in 10 sentences by Ritu over at But I Smile Anyway.

As I do love a poem (and a challenge) I have decided that I will accept.

What to I need to do?

The challenge is to write a poem about love and title it “Love in Ten Sentences.”

It must have 10 lines, each 4 words long.

Every line must contain the word “love.”

At the end of the poem, you must include a favourite quote about love.

Then challenge fifteen other bloggers.

Here is my attempt:

Love is a heartbeat

Love is a hand

Love is so empowering

Love is to understand

Love is a footprint

Love is a song

Love is a vigil

Love is so strong

Love is for you

Love pure and true

My favourite quote is:

Keep love in your heart. A life without it is like a sunless garden when the flowers are dead.

Oscar Wilde
