Many a few I behold, talk
Sweet love to me
Through their eyes
Many others I meet, walk
Straight into me
With their words
But I can't talk love, back
To those beloved ones
Or take them into my heart
For, a loving watchful lot
Often raise questions and
Keep me away from my plots!

I really did connect with this one too. You have an such ease with words that what you express transfers readily to the reader, and one is drawn into it, quite unknowingly. Really liked this one!
A good human understanding but many times we can not avoid these things and just allow ourselves to love these pretty emotions.But it ia a sensible advice to all those who just ruin themselves because of false praise and love in others' eyes.For example. Iago -a villain of Othello by Shakespeare comments about himself and says: 'I am not What I am' and King Claudius in Hamlet makes the same comment when he says: 'one may smile and smile and be a villain'. Good Job.
I love the deceptive simplicity of your verse. Perhaps the plots can wait awhile. F
i have a plot..........a plot to give you a 10 for this lovely piece
A pragmatic way to avoid temptations. So very true. An astute observation on people's behavior. Beautifully written.
Very wise words, yes, one must be careful about these temptations as they affect our energy and may keep us tied.
I enjoy the play on talking and walking as a one-sided movement, thanks
responding the way you want..the preconceived person you have in mind..what we realy speak is not we realy intend to..seems recorded..not natural
alas you are right, but with time comes a mellowing and perhaps we become more tolerant, a prodding poem of thoughtful 10+

Reminds me of Joggers Park... well said, loving eyes do hold a warning, don't they?
