Sara Kendrick Poet Rhyme

L Is For Love

When daddy says wake up my child
And gently shakes my bed
Love is what' felt in my sleepy
state, while lifting heavy head

As mom feeds me warm cereal and milk
Love between us exist
Given a warm bath and clean clothes
Love's tenderness can't resist

Placed in a warm safe place to play
Love radiates my way
When I trip and fall, mom lifts me
Kisses tears and frowns away

Love is the emotion felt all day
When warmth and hugs come
Love also guides me to avoid
Scary places the whole sum

Love is a lullaby sung softly
When tired and sleep won't fall
Love is a kiss gently placed 
As covers tucked love enthrals

Love is a good emotion felt
It soothes my inner parts
Love uplits, encourages all
Love comes from the heart

I feel that there are two emotions love and fear..
We can operate in love or we can operate in fear..
