Love Is Life
Love Is Life
By Rick Rucker
Think about this, if you please,
Life without Love is like a hug, with no squeeze,
Yes, you can live without it,
But, you are poorer, no doubt about it!
I saw my Love just last night,
My Heart’s pace quickened, at her sight,
I don’t remember before I loved her,
Just that dark clouds seemed to ever hover,
Over me, as I went through Life,
Without a Lover, or a Wife,
At the time, I thought I was livin’
With the cards that I was given,
But it was a mere imitation,
A figment of my Imagination!
Love is what makes you want to do,
Things that please both of you,
Things that cause the bells to ring,
Things that cause the birds to sing,
Before I met her, I had lost pounds, by the score,
But I had lost so much more,
The ability to see things as new and bright,
The ability to sleep, right through the night,
Love is like the spice you add to food,
The ingredient that elevates your Mood.
Love is the only thing,
That can, to You, its Happiness bring!
At some point, Life will have you over a barrel,
Only avoid Love at your Peril,
When Life gets too much for you,
It is far easier for two!
For me, it seems a simple Plan,
My loving Woman, her loving Man!
