Love Should Be

LOVE SHOULD BE
   The way the moon gives way,
So, the sun can shine.
   It was you, right down
The line.
     LOVE SHOULD BE
   The waves constant on the shore line,
The ebb and flow push back.
   It is not something you can,
Throw off track.
      LOVE SHOULD BE
   The way winter warms
For spring.
   Love should be WOW!
Quite the thing.
      LOVE SHOULD BE
   Dreams and wishes that
Come true.
   Love never changes its
Point of view.
       LOVE SHOULD BE
   Constant, not fickle
Or change.
   It should be bold, silly,
Clumsy and strange.
        LOVE SHOULD BE
   How noise quiets for
The silence.
   It should be dizzy, sweaty
Not a science.
      LOVE SHOULD BE
   Free, easy, smooth,
Hot and sticky.
   Not used or sinful,
Ugly or tricky.
    LOVE SHOULD BE
   Loose, never confined, it freely
Flows.
   Not something that changes
When the wind blows.
     LOVE SHOULD BE
   That thing that makes
Time stand still.
   It should be honored, respected,
Not something we kill.

Love is so fragile, how can it possibly endure? Aloha!
