Love isn’t an orange
That one peels to reveal
Love isn’t a game of cards
That one needs to deal
Love isn’t a fabric
That one needs to feel
Love isn’t a doctor
That one calls to heal
Love isn’t a document
That one needs to seal
Love remains a word
Or a set of words until
The heart, the mind
And the body is still
And ready for surprises
To enter and fill
Life with what some
Call a spontaneous thrill!

Love is a mystic potion,
That follows no notion!
Love is everything,
Till you discover…
that without it life is nothing!
This is what occurred to my mind when I read this light refreshing poem, expressed so wisely!

Good to know that you liked this one… have been lazy and all my poems written the past year are lying with me without being uploaded to my blog. Doing this at my pace. There are more 2000 poems from past years that are still on pieces of paper, diaries etc.
Your short poem is charming… do upload it on your blog unless you are as lazy as I am. 🙂

Arvind ji, why is ‘twitter” sharing not available as one of the options on your posts / blog to share the post? AM I missing something?

Twitter sharing is right at the top… towards the right. One of four semi-transparent buttons. 🙂

Thanks. Found it. Two observations to share…
Your twitter handle was not embedded in the tweet when I used the twitter share button. (I added it while sharing. If not added, you will not be notified of the tweet. Many bloggers/ readers, dont share the post if the twitter handle is missing)
Found that the size and the background of the sharing buttons at the top are “blink and you miss it” kind. For lazy and crazy readers like me, bright and prominent ones would catch much needed attention.
I hope that you are not offended by any of my observations for neither I am a person of that great stature to advise you nor it was my intention.
Warm regards.

Not offended at all, Anagha. These buttons are a part of the template that I am using and I really do not know how to tweak anything. I am helpless… but you do have a point in what you have observed. Will ask my son if he can think of some solution. 🙂
