The Ones Who Know Not Love

Love is patient. Are you patient?
Love is kind. Impatience is often unkind!
Love does not boast, is not proud, or rude, and is not self-serving.
Are you a proud, boastful, rude, self-serving person?
Love is not easily angered. Are you easily angered?
Love does not delight in evil, do you?
Love rejoices in truth. Are you honest?
Love always, always, always, always, trusts, protects, hopes, and PERSEVERES!
Do you always trust, protect, hope, and PERSEVERE!

Love has been defined;
So, with that in mind;
How do you find?

Are you one who knows not Love?

Darlene De Beaulieu October 7, 2019 at 1:05 PM Hello Kenneth Cheney, so nice to meet you.I have just read your poem. Yes love is patient and kind.No I am not easily angered. When the trust is broken in love the other person is hurt and feels unprotected finding it hard to trust.Have a nice day my friend.
