This is a gorgeous description of what Love is my friend! You have given a glorious definition, one that I'm proud to say is simply beautiful! I feel this every time I think of my Love for my wife! My heart understands this description Sara, thank you for delivering this definition to us all! What a wonderful Acrostic! Great Work!!
