Making Love Is Fun Poem by Louise Tredoux

Making love is the most frivolous act of fun,
to be enjoyed to keep us young, but when
we truly love someone, when we want to
show affection and deep appreciation of a
special person’s presence in our lives, we
can use it to convey our emotions

Feelings change the happy frolicking into a
sacred act illuminating our hearts, afterwards
just a friendly touch means so much, eyes retain
the messages of love, to relay them by telepathy,
the voice is enriched by a special tone when singing
the name of our loved one in conversation

Our body language and facial expression reveal all
our love, if you have felt this before, you’ll want more,
it costs a lot to build a relationship, you have to pay by
giving up interfering associations, but the dividends are
so rewarding, your beauty increases without application
of rouge and cream

Loyalty to the one you love makes your spirit soar, you
find the sublime in the mundane once your loving gaze
transforms it into more than the sum of its parts, together
you create something unheard of before…
