L Is For Love

A little girl of nine Who was cute and kind Asked her dear mother Why do they say love is blind She sat down to explain this force unknown The greatest emotion man has ever known She began love is a beautiful song She said love is an emotion bond Something deep down inside A yearning we just cannot hide It affects people in different ways Some might have a smile for days Love may make their hearts beat faster You might feel butterflies or feel laughter Love is like a strong attraction Love is free, love is passion Love can be strong, love can be weak Love is obedient, but love is unique Love can make you happy Love can make you sad Love can make you say goodbye Make you say things you never had It’s like a mutual happiness One only dreams of or reminisce Going through thick or thin Never mind the mess you’re in Sticking together no matter what Whatever situation you’ve got Love will pull you in, then it will push you away You may want to leave at times But love will beg you to stay Love is a chemistry, a hunger, a thirst And there’s not a thing you can rehearse But you’ll know instantly when love hits you For love is blind comes out of the blue You’ll have no control over this feeling But inside your heart will be reeling Because true love comes from the heart It’s a special something you’ll want to impart That’s why they say love is blind You don't feel love coming to your side But it's the greatest emotion ever to be A gracious gift from God to me © Copyright KC.Leake 19th September 2015 All Rights Reserved For the Contest October 14th 2015

You described love so well, Kevin, and in a way that a young one can understand. So clear, fresh and innocent, and I like that! A 7 from me.
