You are made a debtor

If someone praises you,

You’ve to find words for him.If someone pleases you,You’ve to find gifts for him.If someone shows you love,You’ve to find heart for her.They make you a debtor24.08.2008

Appreciation

Appreciation is the underling theme of this poem, a return of kindness which makes us all debtors. Good write and best wishes.

Subtle.

I missed it at first reading til I noticed Marks comment. In fact at first I thought it was cynical. Still not so sure about that. The battle of the sexes expressed in terms of barter or capitalism? cheers, Jess
