Love Needs Love

Love needs love in return Like hunger needs food Love needs love Like order needs rules Love needs love in return Like sickness needs healing Love needs love Like secrets need revieling Love needs love in return Like thirst needs water Love needs love Like trust needs a promise Love needs love in return Like homeless need a home Love needs love Like desire needs hope Love needs love in return To aid those needing help Love needs love When love is by itself

Great work..There must be a contest on this theme..I have not checked out the contest lately..Enjoyed reading this evening..I was hurt that my Rat Terrier was sick but I knew that he could not stay here any longer..He was in a very bad state..Our son had brought us Princess about two weeks before Rocky died..I loved her and looked after her even though my heart was hurting..Sara
