A Rare Gem

Love is a rare gem, a thing of beauty that comes in many colors, and makes you crazy and want no others. It's precious and worth more than all the jewels you've worn before. It makes you smile at the day and feel alive in a new way. It fits your heart like a glove, this thing we call love. But take care when you reveal it and guard it carefully from those who would steal it. If you lose it you'll no longer shine but with luck you'll find it again in time.
