Love Is
Love is patient like a rainbow waits for a rainy day
Love is kind like the dew that gently on the dry ground lays
Love is trusting like gravity keeps from going astray
Love is humble like grass stomped with never a gripe to weigh
Love is timid like a margay that hides in leaves of trees
Love is proper like a mourning dove greets the sun with glee
Love is selfless like a dolphin risks to guide to safety
Love is soothing like a manatee gliding through the sea
Love is merciful like a spouse forgiving an affair
Love is pure like one sacrificing for a life to spare
Love is truth like two placed in a garden with all laid bare
Love is perfect like a child’s nightly innocent prayer
Love bears all like one man suffering and nailed to a cross
Love endures all like the Son taking humanity's dross
Love believes all like the Father did not count us a loss
Love hopes all like the Spirit who on us His name emboss
