There From the Start

Love…
A fine emotion
Overpowered by none
Empowered for everyone

To all people
It is shared alike
Love conquers everything
We each have a part

We can receive love
A powerful force
And we can give love
A great connector

Love is in our hearts
Put there from the start
We desire to fill it up
And feel the joy it imparts
