    I have grown to believe in the phrase that you shouldnt go searching for love, rather you should let it come to you. Indeed we all go searching for that perfect person, and in the end they are right before our eyes--and we had no idea that whole time. You penned this nicely, it is the truth!(:

    Yup Meena...how often are we blinded and don't see the love we had in our hands until it has slipped away and we are left empty handed...

    If only we should realize all people are flawed and knew how to accept each other as we are!

    Well done on this:)

    *hugs*

    A wonderful poem.... we do indeed fail to see/appreciate the love of our near and dear ones sometimes. Its so taken for granted. A very good job on the challenge Meena!

    All the best :)

    Sometimes people do search for love and don't see it right before their eyes. Good job with the form as well.
