The Beauty of Love

Love, a word so small

Yet means so much

In so many different ways

From a smile to a touch.

Of one to another

Whether near or far away

The sound of your voice alone

Can make someone’s day.

Love is the greatest feeling

One can behold

It’s seen everywhere in

Everyone both young and old.

A smile from a child

A nod from an elder

Confirms the acceptance of love

And its performance is stellar!

There’s self love, spiritual love

And emotional love too

But the greatest of them all

Is love from me to you.

Bringing the biggest and brightest

Smiles to our faces

As happiness and joy

Leave their traces.

In our minds, in our hearts

And deep down in our souls

Love bridges the gaps within us

And fills in all the holes.

Making us whole once again

Giving us that sparkle in our eye

Giving us hope as we look

Towards Heaven’s sky.

So no matter how you see it

Whether deep inside or from above

Love is what you make of it

Hence the beauty of love.

Love, a word so small

Yet means so much

In so many different ways

From a smile to a touch.
