Happy Valentine's Day 2011




LOVE
Magnetic, inflammable
Landing, penetrating, merging
Melting cheese suddenly on a piece of roasted toast.
Stickiness.

  1. Yu Chieh! You have succeeded in wowing me again! How wonderful that you have made LOVE like a piece of cheese melting on toast! Your image delighted me so much, I laughed! Yes LOVE is magnetic--but is it possible the cheese could burst into flame?

  2. Hi YuChieh, As your poem as your picture is amazing.
    I think that the words are completely identify with the picture. I like how the heart is merging and penetring in the ocean. I feel like the love can be able to invade our life.
    Thank you for your words, that are incredibles!

  3. Dear Yu Chieh,
    The last wowrd that you have used (Love's synonym) really got me thinking. I never really imagined love to be "sticky", but after reading your poem; YES!...that is so true!
    Another thing which I found mesmerizing about your poem was how dense and deep it sounds yet ,somehow, it gives the sense of simplicity.
    Keep up the amazing work!

    P.S: the gerunds that you have used totally resemble a cheese melt in my head..maybe its just my hunger taking over...:)

  5. Dear Ruth! Yes, it is possible the cheese burst into fame! If love were too much :)

    In this poem I tried to write about the beginning of love...so it's attractive and sticky...but love is not always like this... this is also one of the most interest things in love because it always changes a lot!!!
