Love
I think love is the greatest thing –
and few will disagree; and no
need for gene splicing, genome
sequencing in a lab to propagate –
just good old fashioned love
produces love: with gentle strokes
of kindness; encouraging words,
gestures and sweet nudges –
I see love in the feline grooming
her kittens; love in a bird protecting
her nest at the cost of her life if
necessary; love in the breast of a
nurturing mother – in the supporting
nature of a 24/7 wife; I see love
in the sun, for when it shines things
grow and ripen; I see love in the
rain, for we quench and know,
that love is alive and well – a short
word, and as easy to give as spell;
yet a world of evil can't kill it...for
God on high, as man's saving grace
supports and triumphantly wills it –
