Love won’t count the times you’re wrong
Or harp on words now of regret
But make you feel that you belong
And of the wrongs forget

Love holds more than just your heart
It holds your hand in times of need
It wipes the tears if they may start
And helps you if you bleed

Love is such a state of mind
Of happiness that has no bounds
Does listen and is all so kind
And sings delightful sounds

Love is such a dream and longing
It’s essence something all desire
To have its piece of true belonging
Would let this hope retire

Absolutely beautiful, dear Rick! When we love and receive love we lack nothing.

Enjoyed this very much.

Love,

Wonderful write, Rick, and as good an explanation of love that has ever been written.  I think, however, that we as human beings can't really appreciate the true essence of love but poets such as yourself come very close.  Lovely!  Enjoyed!
