The Speed of Love
written by: Roger Turner
@titansdad
I met her many years ago
Not knowing where we’d head
It took a while to find out
Then we ended up in bed
Love is a slow moving thing
Not quite the same as lust
The one it has no feeling
The other, it needs trust
Work it right and you will find
That love will come around
It’s just like starting a new path
You hold the grass down to the ground
Like a snail moving a boulder
The speed is not that fast
But, with time and trust you’ll learn that
Love will surely last
Love is quite a fragile thing
You can find that in a fight
Love can turn to hate real fast
Hate is the speed of light
So, take your time, be careful
Know which is love or lust
Hate is always waiting
To turn one of them to dust

I live in London, Ontario, Canada. I have published a few books "The Christmas Ponies", "Sarah and The Christmas Ponies" among others on amazon. My tastes run to Stephen King, but reach from Dr. Suess, and Shel Silverstein. I love golf and old films and anything related to old Las Vegas. I am married to the love of my life, Megan, and have been for 19 years.
