2007-05-06 Eleanor: Ah, such a lovely sentiment. If only we lived in a perfect world. Nice work. 2007-05-06 Jenna Rose: Thank you. 2007-05-06 Annie: Hey, great poem, just wanted to let you know that on line 7 I think you meant two "women" not "woman." :) 2007-05-06 Jenna Rose: Thanks ^^ I thought I fixed that before I uploaded. 2007-05-08 Laika: More than courage it takes endless patience to explain over and over again why you don't like the opposite sex. x__X And tolerance for really, really insulting questions. I wonder why people don't get how big a part of me being a lesbian is. And now I'll stop ranting and spamming and get to school. :D 2007-05-08 Jenna Rose: People can be jerks/idiots. 2007-05-08 Laika: My daddy always says: "never blame malvolence for the acts of stupidity". Mostly people are just stupid or not thinking all the way through. 2007-05-21 Shadowsong: i thought it was awsome Jen. Love has no sex, it's good for us to step back and remember that.. 2007-05-21 Jenna Rose: I wouldn't call it awesome. I don't like that it rhymes anymore. o.o[Jenna Rose]: 150.Contest Entries.Ess - May 07

Written for the contest Ess for the May 07 round, with the theme of "sexual preference".
NOTE: If you're offended by or just don't like homosexuality/
I'd like to state that this poem contains MY opinion and feelings. If it differs from yours, that's fine. If you don't like it, don't read and comment. I really don't want to hear "bashing" of this writing, homosexuals, gay marriage, and the like. Again, this is MY opinion. Don't be a rude a**hole about this writing - even if you don't agree!
Love Has No Gender
I see men and women everywhere -
In love, together, without a care.
Walking on beaches, holding hands;
In churches, exchanging wedding bands.
But rarely do you see together, a man and a man,
Kissing on park benches where their love first began.
Or two women in love, who openly show it;
Not caring, letting anyone know it.
For a woman and a woman, a man and a man,
Weddings in churches? In many places, it’s banned!
For those who do marry, have children, and together grow old;
I want you to know, to me your courage is worth more than gold.
Deep down in my heart, in all honesty,
These things are beautiful to me...
These things that I rarely see and wish I could see more of.
Gender? It doesn’t matter - what matters is love.
(nice poem, btw. :D and it's provoking discussion!)
