The Rare Kind of Love

My friends ask me if I've found love yet , 
well I say....no I haven't found it
I say , it wasn't lost to be found....
LOVE....I'll tell you about love
I've found love in my life at my first breath
I see love in GOD, yes in GOD
isn't he the one who gave me what I have now ?
Didn't he completed me ?Didn't he made me perfect ?
He gave me the gift of vision , the gift of breathing , the gift of hearing , of talking , of feeling
The gift to thinking and taking  choices
He gave me a pure heart to love and care , to forgive, 
 he threw faith inside my weak soul
I pray and he responded , he looks out for me
Isn't that called love? Cause if it's not then what's the definition of it ?
Yes I see love....I see love in my mother's eyes
When she holds me, when she makes me feel safe and secure
Yes, I see love in the woman who birthed me
Who stayed hours , days , months , years looking out for me , 
trying her best to give me the life I dreamed about
Yes I see love in her , didn't she taught me what I know now ?
I see love in her pure heart, in her tears when she carries my pain,my worries,  when she heals my wounds with her soft , gentle , warm touch
Isn't that love ?If it's not then what is it ?
How can you ask me if I've found love when it's never been lost ?
When it's in every beautiful face that I see in the morning
In every smile , in every laugh
Believe me I have lots of love in my life , it's just from a different kind , the rare one
Trust me if you own the same love that I own , you'll know how lame is the one you use to know , the one you use to call love
My love is the kind that never ends , never dies 
Never get dirty and never cause pain
It's the kind that light up your destination
The kind that gives peace to your heart and life
And the kind that color your deep dark soul with the colors of faith

Beautiful words as always, Dalia! Well articulated: the concept that 'it wasn't lost to be found', and that it doesn't have to entail pain. A refreshing interpretation - wise words...

A very touching and inspiring poem on love and the Source of true love, God. It is true that we first glimpse of His love in our fathers and mothers. Great message.

a great poem you've penned Dalia, your creative write's been so much missed here, indeed this is the rare kind of love, this is the love that mostly everybody have but never knew, since they're blinded to the belief that kitty love is the only one, it's great you discovered your possession of that kind of love, the rare kind...it uplifts us from low to high, gives us a shade and rain when the world is dry, gives us palms to hold our face when tears threaten, the rare kind of love that is, and you've excellently portrayed it in this beautiful poem, a great pen you hold Dalia, let it forever drip your golden mind's ink...this is an incredible write

Everything that we come to love is a need directly conneced to the very first thing we ever had a passion for Dalia, and this declaration of lucid love and gratitude is a beautiful proof of this truth Violet Poetess...I've missed you...J.A.B.
