14 Count The Ways, “Maybe”

Art: Expectation & Hope by Chidi Okoye expectationandhope-chidi okoye

 

Oh how I love thee,

Let me count the ways.

Please stop the count,

If it only amounts to

Hollow spouts

And shallow praise.

    Yes, why say how much you love me if you do not put any action behind your words?

    I had to read that 3 times until finally I understood what it was saying. Makes sense to me now.

      hmmmmm......
      sincerity now therein lies the key...
      too many times we knowingly and unknowingly allow ourselves to be carried away by hollow words.

      Welcome back.
      Yes, there are time when the unfolding is as important as the knowing.....
      that of which requires depth so that the discovery is treasured.
