Notes About The Poem

Four Letters Form Eternity!

Love

Love is forgiveness
For what we put him through
Love is the power
Hate is something it can't do

Love is the rock
That can't be torn apart
Love is the anchor
That keeps it in my heart

Love is the promise
Unbroken, tried and true
love is a new beginning
When this old life is through

Love is the voice
When everything is said
Love is my Jesus
He will raise me from the dead

Love is redemption
That stained the rugged cross
Love is the stairway
From those deep pits of loss

Love is the sunshine
In my darkest night
Love is the gold wings
For my final flight

Bless your deep heart. Every stanza covered in gold leaf! Brought me to weeping. By the way, in 5/2018, I was in a coma, andChrist DID walk me out of it...raise me from thee dead. Hugs and blessings to you

The many attributes of love --so well described! Love resonates in every verse--splendidly done, Chuck. The sub-title of your poem speaks volumes!
