Another 'Love Is' Poem

Love is sweet poison from the lips
              Falling Kingdoms and sinking ships
            Love is that first nervous kiss, over at last
    hands shaking, heart pounding, and beating much to fast
            Love is holding hands and kissing goodnight
            Laughter and tears, promising never to fight
            Love is sweet dreams and painful goodbyes
            Long romantic nights and passionate sighs
              Love is a small baby in Mother's arms
                warm and innocent, safe from harm
     Love is a perfect little hand wrapped around your finger
              rocking to sleep while memories linger
            Love is sharing memories with caring friends
              Promising their friendship will never end
                  Love is little girls chasing little boys
                   candy kisses and brand new toys
            Love is Grandpa's farm and Grandma's kitchen
     waving from the back seat and waiting for the weekend
            Love is a bent back and trembling hands
           spreading dirt and tears over his best friend
     Love Webster says: is intense affection for another-
      Father, Friend, Sister, Brother, Mother, or Mate
                        We should all Love each other.
