Love Is a Treasured Thing
There are so many kinds of love in life,
love of mom and dad;
their deaths leave me sad,
sometimes, this life is like a sharpened knife.
There is love of pets,
love with no regrets;
and we know that such great love bring us great grief,
for love's brother- death comes a cold-hearted thief.
Love is a treasured thing !
There is the love of grandparents so nice,
I loved their small farm;
it had such sweet charm,
now, my grandma and grandpa rest in peace.
I loved my 'true' love,
he left like a dove;
then, the love of my baby boy filled my heart,
this love God wanted- so he had to depart.
Love is a treasured thing !
There is the special love of loyal friends,
sharing hopes and dreams;
and walks along streams,
my love for my faithful friends never ends.
Love nature always,
at scenes I just gaze;
I love all the birds and creatures on this earth,
and I have since a child- each creature has worth.
Love is a treasured thing !
And to memories cling !
