Love

Love is.....closer to you than the stars;
So reach! Take hold with your heart.
Love.....knows no distance; 
so come! Be warmed by its fire.
Love....enters through the humble door;
Just open! What are you waiting for?
No season is right for love;
Love can blossom anytime!

Thanks for sharing this... exposing your thoughts through your unique poetic style. Meanwhile, I greet you with the love of the Lord, expressed by John 3:16 of the Bible, "For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life." Be blessed.

Oh wow Jim - I have to admit i have been prolific since i joined the site just a year ago yesterday - having never written a poem since I was at school I think I must be making up for lost time!!! I was born in Selly Oak simply because my sister was born therel but I grew up in Derby returned to Birmingham, married and lived in Selly Park until we moved to the isle of Man in 1996

Well thank you Jan. I have only just put this poem online (my first as you can see) about 10 minutes ago. You have encouraged me. Unfortunately, I will not, like you, be posting poems by the hundreds, as my gift only comes out every 10 years or so! You have a gift, for sure. By the way, I am from Birmingham, UK. Best wishes to you.
