What Is Love

What is love
Love is unique and free
Free of struggle and strife 
Free of contempt 
Love is to hear the sound 
Of your child's beating heart 
In the womb Love is where the 
Loveless are not found 
Love is whispers at the dawning
Whispers Of sweet Sensual 
Honey suckle charms
What is love you ask? 
Then I say,  trying your best 
To assure her satisfaction.
Asking if she's okay.
Love is tear drops in the rain
Waiting through the pain
Sometimes not having so that
Your love ones may have it all.
Love is a smile at the most 
Difficult times fights at night
But not going to sleep angry 
A most magnificent emotion 
With much Devotion 
Love is being lost with your 
Lover in Lush lilac gardens not
Wanting to be found. 
Quietly closing the door. Privacy.
Love is a powerful state of mind
An affection of Cardiac proportions 
An infection for eternity until 
Years pass.
Love is loving her tender
Caresses on a sizzling summer 
Night  love is everything these words
Have read.  Love is all of the above
And more

There's so much love overflowing from this poem that defines the endless meaning of the word. Too much caring in the open side; sadness in the blind side.
