It's Love Dear Friends, It's Love

If there's one thing that keeps this old lamp burning It's love dear friends, it's love The ultimate of human emotions without doubt There's no greater feeling above When true love evolves, the fireworks begin Things have a brand new glow What once was boring and quite uninteresting Is intriguing as life starts to flow Things like the aroma of coffee in the morning Or the amazing freshness of spring The voice of a robin singing it's sweet song Just a few of these simple things They make us aware of this world we live in And wonders that never cease The trees, the rivers, the sun and the clouds Leave us with a feeling of peace Each of us is only a speck in the universe But as vital as kings and queens So give thanks to our creator dear Mother Nature And wonder at what all of this means If there's one thing that keeps the old lamp burning It's love dear friends, it's love © Jack Ellison 2015

Love is Dragon lighting the fire place, the glowing lamps, and alas the table as here we go again! It's sending fire my way to re-heat my coffee up. It's looking remorseful after melting another favorite cup. But Best, is Dragon running outside with his penguins, so I can finally write! Even tho it makes his fire come out as little puffs of snow! It's letting his penguins make a Dragon snowman, with him inside the thing! Cause they're so small it'd take a year without his sacrifice, so dear.
