I Fall In Love So Easily Poem by Charles M Moore

I Fall In Love So Easily

Rating: 4.5


I fall in love like a ship takes to sea
through the storms and the tempests and tranquility
like a bird to the air, like the buzzing of bee
I fall in love so easily

I fall in love at a name or a song
at a whispering glance or straight forward come on
at a fiddling of fingers when patience has gone
I fall in love so easily

I fall in love when it's time I should go
at the chirping of cricket or hacking of crow
at the running of fox and of rabbit and doe
I fall in love so easily

I fall in love when there's no one around
when the night's at its darkest and there isn't a sound
when I feel all alone with the air and the ground
I fall in love so easily

I fall in love when it's breaking my heart
when it all falls around me and tears me apart
when I think it's the end, it comes flooding back
I fall in love so easily

I fall in love at the slightest of smiles
to the opening of pupil and twinkle of eye
to a shape and a form I could go on and on
yes I fall in love so easily.

To fall in love implies courage to face vulnerability. Anyway, this is a very accomplished poem, a rhyme scheme I've never seen before - altogether admirable in message and in form. You seem to be open to new experience, as is a ship that takes to sea. Great read.

really an original and creative treatise on the essence of love with natural overtones...and the writer sharing his evocative insight as to the specialness of natural beauty.....really in touch with the senses...flowing and melodic

Our hearts upon on sleeves, romantics through the time. They say it is better to love and lost that never to have loved. But I think that person must have been a full fledged hermit! Great write Patricia

Charlie - Wonderful poem! It's difficult to be the first one to fall, not knowing if the other one is in the same space or not. Love is always a gamble, is it not? Sometimes we win, sometimes we lose, and alot of the time we just get rained out. But it's all worth the effort, I guess. Linda
