The Quality of Friendship by designldg

Best Tested Love.

Love is not love until tested
severely
with deep argument's heat,
until beaten with weakest excuses,
or scorched with remorseless
disbelief.

Untested love takes for granted
a life predetermined with
success.
but the strongest, the best
in tested love
will accept that defference
keeps it fresh.

Your expressive poem is clearly written from experience, Fay, and your words ring as true as the great bells in Big Ben's clock tower. Any love can sail on a smooth sea, but it is when the winds blow, the waves thunder, and the rocks perilously close, that true love shines in it's finest moments. Your lovely poems expresses that so well. Carl.

I do remember someone saying that if you really love me , you must learn to accept me as I am ! The same thing can be said about great friendship ! I loved Ken's comments the most ! Thanks Fay ! -Raj

Deep thought and a sound basis for the truth which you poetically express. It is lifes challenges, defeats, and disagreements that shall ultimately provide the test, and pull us closer together. Anything less than this is merely 'apple pie and ice cream' love
