What has there not been said and written about love!
Romance novels, romantic movies, love poems,
Valentine's Day cards and wishes,
love quotes, song lyrics, and more.
I have been thinking how to approach the subject
in a different way and, as a teacher,
I have what I think, is a great idea.
Why not be practical instead of romantic!
Let's use your extraordinary and very useful dictionary,
TO LOVE (verb) and LOVE (noun)
