Ordinary Love

ORDINARY LOVE

Some people love in grandness

displaying that bright love

like a fountain of fiery romance

to rain flowers forevermore

upon the apple of their eye

telling the world

this love is extraordinary.

And because this love

is so visibly majestic to behold

it is revered and desired 

by those without it.

But some people love

in ordinary

diligently and consistently

drip-feeding their love

in nurture form

often unseen or unnoticed

rarely celebrated

always reliable.

And because this love is so humble

it can be brushed away as unimportant

yet without it

worlds would crumble

lives would fall apart

and souls would be forever-seeking

their flamboyant mate

whilst passing by their very cornerstone

right under the nose.

I guess what I am trying to say is

there is no such thing as ordinary love

it is all quite amazingly

profoundly

extraordinary

whether it shouts from the rooftops

or whispers in the holding of a hand.

You just have 

to see it

to make it

the wondrous entity

you seek.
