The Story of Love
THE STORY OF LOVE: BY LINET KANANA
Some say they walked into love
Others say it crept in on them
Catching them completely off guard
Some believe it fought its way into their
hearts
What is your story of love?
My friend says she stumbled and fell into
it
My sister voluntarily jumped into it
My brother grew into it
While my grandmother? She found
herself in it
What is your story of love?
Similar strands bind the stories together,
…the smile when they narrate their story
The dreamy look in their eyes
The confidence in their voices that say’’ I
have found the real deal’’
This is the love story!
Amazing how the clouds fade and
everything looks more beautiful
How everything smells much better and
even tastes sweeter
All over Sudden we notice the colours
dancing around us, there is a rainbow in
the cloud!
We take note of the smiles of kind
neighbours, even their annoying dog
suddenly looks better
We notice the children playing cheerfully
on the streets, and their noise sounds
beautiful!
This is the love story!
The songs sound clearer the loads
become lighter
The grass seems greener and prettier and
we notice the flowers on the paths
The raindrops tenderly kiss our skin as
listen to the whispers in the wind
The head stands higher, the eyes shine
brighter, there is Laughter in our voice
and smiles linger on
Body, soul and spirit, unite in perfect
harmony,, when you have a story about
love
Whether you fall or grow in love
Whether it creeps in you simply find
yourself in it
Hold on to it, celebrate it and write your
story of love!
