I'm not a fan of love poems, but this is the best question about love I've ever read! One of your best probing ideas that I've read so far! As a bipolar person, I can actually FEEL the chemicals change in my brain when I go from one mood to another (rapid cycler, so it happens often, all day long). Also, having fallen in love about sixteen hundred times, I can assuredly say, the chemical flux is quite similar (((HUGS)))

Thanks bg! :)
Chemical flux ...such a curious sensation to experience as routine! No wonder your works are Vivid & Lively & Engaging!
Only 1600 ?! Heck, I cab top that in one trip to the Mall !!! haha

Well there's a question. It is chemistry. It is science. Everything is science. Not all fermented grapes make good wine though, so it has to be good chemistry. I guess love is like cooking. You can make a decent lasagne, but then with a few added ingredients you can make a spectacular one. There's my penny worth Dylan:)

Well there's an answer! ... well worth at least a quid I'd say :) ...yes, I agree, it's all in those added ingredients!
( I bet your friends rave about your lasagna!)

It's a long time since my friends were invited round for dinner. That's covid for ya. On Monday I am meeting a girlfriend for lunch. Trying to get back to normal. My cooking these days is for family. They are grateful and inclined to eat anything I put before them:) Much wisdom there, unless they want the cook to go on strike :)

...sounds like a real nice family, they know which side their bread is buttered on :)... something my Grandma used to say, and she made the best fresh-from-the-oven bread ever!!!

Your Grandma was a wise woman. I bet her bread was bordering on the divine:) My Grandma used to make the best bread and butter pudding ever. I can almost taste it, as I think it :)

...bread from a cozy farmhouse kitchen that I loved better than cake :) ... We had Grandmas that were GRANDMAS! you and I :)
