Love

In John Frederick Nim's poem "Love Poem" there is an awesome theme.  The idea that one can be in love with another for their personality and behavior.  As well it seems within this poem that there annoyances about the individual which make that individual even more loved.  The theme I found in this is that opposites attract.  One focused on certain things may overlook others.  This poem gives example of the greatness, feeling and idealism of love.  Love is very unique because, there are so many uses of the word and it can encompass so much.  The care for someone and strong feelings generated by the times and memories shared with that individual can be thought of as true love.  The giving, friendly or outgoing nature of an individual could be deemed as love.  Love is a very broad term yet is focused so centrally on individuals normally.  It is rare for someone to say that they love everyone.  This poem allows many to see the idealism and feelings associated with love.
