“I think… if it is true that there are as many minds as
there are heads, then there are as many kinds of love as there are hearts.” ~ Leo Tolstoy
Once upon a time (on a Valentine’s Day far, far away), I got into an argument (okay, a fight) over the opening quote. Someone said there was only one kind of romantic love. And I might’ve said that the someone in question was an idiot to believe such nonsense. I was young, and my tact muscles were weak, so don’t judge me too harshly. Never mind, I’m not all that young right now, and I still think that person was an idiot, so… judge me as harshly as you must. Better yet, my dear poets and storytellers, let’s leave that particular memory behind and focus on today’s optional prompt:
I invite you to find inspiration in the phrase “love is
love”.
As always, add the direct link to your response to Mister Linky. One post per participant, please. 369 words maximum (excluding title). You may share old or new pieces of poetry or prose, write to the prompt or to a topic of your choosing. Visit other writers. Let your words show them how their words make you feel.
next week,
Rommy will invite us to use the word “torch” in our poetry or prose.
