Background Notes:

Each year, in conjunction with Global Love Day, The Love Foundation (TLF) hosts an open Art, Essay and Poetry Invitational. Submissions are accepted from around the world and there have been profound examples of the creative expressions of unconditional love. 

TLF's primary theme is "Love Begins with Me" and encourages submissions to be centered around this theme and/or incorporating the Global Love Day tenets: We are one humanity on this planet.; All life is interconnected and interdependent.; All share in the Universal bond of love.; Love begins with self acceptance and forgiveness.; With respect and compassion we embrace diversity.; Together we make a difference through love.

Anyone "young at heart" may participate (no age limit) and Finalists and Honorable Mentions are selected by The Love Foundation Board and recognized with certificates in mid May.

This poem titled "LOVE" was accorded an Honorable Mention for Global Love Day. In addition, my Essay titled "Unconditional Love Transforms" was also accorded an Honorable Mention.  There were 3 Finalists and 5 Honorable Mentions for the 2015 Art, Essay and Poetry Invitational held in conjuction with Global Love Day. For more news, visit TLF's website to check out the details, or download the PDF files. Enjoy!

Thank you.

(Unconditional Love Transforms) ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Love powers all Both big and small Love starts the fire In fond desire Love fills the spheres Right now and here Love does not end Outlives all trends Love makes things grow As light shapes show Love's the reason For all seasons Love creates all That rise and fall Love changes things Yet ever springs Love is the light That gives true sight Love fills each face In time and space Love plays and fills As life reveals Love sets you free To live, to be Leon Enriquez 31 March 2015 Singapore
