Game of Love

Birth is a copy of who you will be
Life is the creations of all you will see
Love is the soul that searches for another
Sight shows us which way to go

Hearing brings pleasurable sounds
Tasting ignites our stomach wants
Touching gives feelings of love
Smells give tasting more flavors

All start off and finish the same
It’s the in-between that is not the same
Some are winners and some losers 
But in the end it’s how we play the game

If you cheat you will be caught
When you get caught you will pay the price
We are all actors playing different parts
Some will receive an academy award

Others get bored dropping out of the game
We sit across from one another competing
All wanting to win 
Some go directly to jail and never pass go

Others end up in a stalemate with no where to go
This game of life is a real monopoly game 
You may end up with a straight flush
Or roll the dice and end up with craps 

There is only one way to win at this game
It’s a simple one-word scrabble game
It starts with an L and end with an E
If you can win at this scrabble game then

You will win at this game of Love
The O and the V stands for: Our Victory in Love
