When I Fall In Love (Poem No. 580)



I seldom fall in Love,
But when I really do
it would have a wings like dove.
 Once I trust it to you
It would be forever true.
If you ever disappear  from view
and never have a clue of where you go;
I'll wait for awhile till I know
Of what is really happening with you.
Once it is given, It's  hundred percent.
Be a good keeper, do not astray,
Match the strength; or else,
I will never trust and love again.

Hi Everyone! This is Ging not so tall and not so short. I came from a big family of Ten and I am the last fruit of my parents love on the first set of seven siblings. My family describe me as friendly, lively, lovely and poetic and funny; this is when I was at home in my native land and speak my own language and dialect. I speak two languages, three dialects and two dialect that I can understand but I can't speak very well. another extras,I can read Spanish but can't understand all the words, I speak few sentence. I love most of the sports and I was involved in sports during my younger years. I have passion in music and acting during my High school and college years. Graduated From O.T.C In B.S.E.ED.

I love life, I love to smile and laugh. I love to imagine and to dreams. I like to keep busy not sitting and doing nothing. I love vegetarian food and fruits and water to drink. I love people and I am people person. Honesty is the best policy for me. I like to be around trust worthy, Spiritual and God fearing people.I believe in simplicity is beauty,Simple but terrible ...:) I am curious person...I dislike critical, hateful person. CRITICISM without love brings destruction and LOVE without criticism brings stagnation. You have to learn to balance it. I like poetry because its an expression of our inner soul. Words that sweetly and wisely spoken are precious than silver or gold. I was told by the people when I was little, I am poet, and My Sweet told me, I have potential to be good poet if I will develop it. When I was invited to join this site, I was excited.

In one day.., we're able to come up with the minimum requirements. Yikes! it was a close call!:) I was so pleased that the teacher was very please of the writings and my choice of words. Hehehe and she love it.:) Thanks to the founder of this poetry site, that encourage everyone to share what's in their heart and of course with the rules to follow, and review each other and help one another encourage each other. I am kind of addicted to poetry, I could not sleep when words are floating waiting to be capture. I have to get up and write it, and follow up the next day.By the way, I am sharing the Different types of Poetry, to remind you and myself of the different type so that we will have a better ideas what to write. And when we review others writing, we can understand and we can give a good judgement, kind and fair. Let us Respect each others work, Put your feet on others shoes, Look at the meaning beyond the saying of the poem, leave a comment in assertive way that will encourage me or someone to keep writing and sharing.
