Notes About The Poem

Written June 2 2026 for A Broad Reach contest sponsor Craig Cornish

Love’s Broad Reach

“I think scars are like battle wounds-beautiful in a way. They show what you’ve been through and how strong you are for coming out of it.” 
    Demi Lovato

Love has a broad reach 
It’s truly magical and deep
With power to bring about peace
It boldens the shy and meek

A broad reach it can create
With warm touch procreate
And continue in a face
Blended like a copy a babe

A broad reach it is divine
Love gives sight to blind
It’s not selfish and it’s kind
True love stands test of time

Love each other and self as well
Create heaven on earth avoid hell

Love is the fulcrum on which the world spins. It has a broad reach and it is what the world needs most. Beautifully written, dear Karen.
