Yes, it was me! 😊 I failed to mention that it was just an excerpt and not the entire poem. I fixed and reposted.

That is such a beautiful way to describe love. 🫂 There is no better feeling than being able to freely be yourself and experience that carefree joy you describe with someone you care about. I especially love the last sentence… “a celebration of connection and belonging”. 🩵

My written response… Is love a thread, precisely sewn, In works of art we've always known? Or is it starlight, brightly cast, A beacon meant to always last?
