Love?


Love is a true spirit,
it's a gift in every way.
It can not be discribed in words,
no matter what you say.

It must be shown in kindness
or discribed in feeling shown;
true love is offered freely
or true love is never known.

To put a price on offered love
can not be done, you see?
True love can not be bartered,
all you sell is misery.

So when you offer, make it real,
the love right from your heart.
Love has no limit you can give,
true love has just a start.

It adds to life a bonus grown,
a spirit you must share;
True love's a double picture,
But one love is half a pair.

This poems just about covers it, Dinosr. There is no faking true love, at least not for long. Good poetry.

Thanks JP
..I was half a pair for years,
a half so strong, it lasted 32
years. Shattered by greed.
..Now the world is right and
true love is in full bloom.

Jl,
..Thanks. Knowing there are still
people on earth that are really
trying to do the right thing and
bow only to the God that is, is a
blessing.

take the test.

Thanks Suthern,
..If youth would take lessons from
people that have already been there,
chances are, there might be fewer
mistakes. Happy is where it's at.

You never get old and at any age the test is still the same, so take it.  Nice that you are in love again.
