Love Seesaw Poem by Patricia Grantham

Love Seesaw

Rating: 5.0


Love is like a seesaw that goes up and down
Just like the ferris wheel it goes around and around
Sometimes you maybe happy and at times maybe sad
You played the game of love and lost everything you had

Love can be unsteady and sometimes topsy-turvy
Can be bold and beautiful and also kind of nervy
Here today and gone tomorrow a never ending battle
Will either make or break you until you start to rattle

Love can either break your heart or tear it all asunder
Thrown out and cast aside then left outside for plunder
A seesaw kind of love you see can also be unsteady
Never go for a ride on love unless you're good and ready

Love can make you a loser and may sometimes let you win
Whatever it takes to keep it try playing again and again
When you have had enough tell the love seesaw goodbye
Give your self sometime to recover and give it another try

Love can go up and down and round and round. We must move with it and enjoy every moment. Thank you.

'Never go for a ride on love until you're good and ready'- a sound advice! This sweet rhyming poem is not simply melodious in tone, but weighty in content too!

lovely! ! ! Yes Love is like a seesaw that goes up and down and you really need to be careful or else you'll fall; Love can be unsteady and can break your heart. So you should be ready before you enter the world of love. I loved it! ! !

Good rhythm goes through all the stanzas, making the poem enjoyable to read and making the reader flow within the words-just like the metronome taps the rhythm of the piano or even better just like being on the sea saw itself :) Regards ~Besa

Viva l'amour Patricia. Love can bite so deeply that the world stops. Love can be so serene that the world is bliss. But Oh! When love has had it's day it's great to feel that freedom to set off on the chase again. Love it. Well written.

I am so happy you had pointed this particular poem out to me, because I love it! It is so true, and explains this emotion and game perfectly! And I do agree, it reminds me of more than a few of my past written poems....from the Game....to 'moonlight memories'....saying we both have a similar view of this powerful emotion! Thank you for sharing your take on it all!
