What Is Love

What is love 
A feeling from above
I kid you not
It helps A lot

Feeling of love keeps you stay sane
Takes away all of your pain
When you are in it is fine
Your happy that your on cloud nine 

Love is compassion and understanding
Not all about being demanding
Love is fun and being caring
A problem is really for sharing 

A cuddle a kiss or even a hug
Lay next to the fire on the great rug
Laugh and joke make each other smile
Love does break the 3 min mile

Honesty loyalty is a must 
Or your love will just be dust
Hard times will go and good times will come
Like I said earlier love is for fun

So grab your partner by the hand 
Look into their eyes with a smile be grand
Your love for them you must tell
Appreciate them your life will be swell 

Love can come from family and friend
As long as you nurture it will not end
A partnership will do just the same
Whether civil or matrimonial neither is lame

I have been lucky I've found my love
Out of the clouds came my white dove
She's made me happier than I've ever been
Gave me love and self esteem 

Their is someone out there for everyone
Hopefully yours will come along 
When they do remember to say
I LOVE YOU every day
