All the Good Things In Life

What's the most important thing in life It's love love sweet love There's nothing else has even comes close More than anything else above Call me an over-the-hill silly old duffer But this is what I've found Without it there's an empty space down deep Heart's have a hollow sound So if you haven't yet experienced true love The best part is up ahead It's the greatest thrill you'll ever experience You'll feel giddiness in your head Take it from me I've learned from experience It's why I wake up with a smile It's away ahead of whatever comes second It wins by a country mile Love is basically what this life's all about Passion for another human being About treasuring all the good things we have It even surpasses peeing!

dearest Jack--I agree with every word in your sweet and thoughtful poem. Love is at the core of us all...and all I need when the day is done. Being loving and kind is paramount in my mind...like you it surpasses 'peeing.' :-) smiles, enjoy your day, Sara
