Few Hold On To It (Love) Love has said to be the greatest of pleasures, but the total sum of souls that have possessed this prize of all prizes and then lost it is not countable by a humans own power. I know of someone that possesses an unconditional love for all. Never showing their own needs or wants for this would render there greatest gift valueless. I asked them were they found the unlimited love they possessed, in return the words were spoken, it pulsates through my heart which then flows through out my body and then is given to all I meet upon this earth. I asked another question, what happens to those who do not take the love so freely given, and they replied I give until it hurts. They smiled at me and said if I could, I would give to all eternity, for the sharing of love was meant to last for all time, never to see an end for it is the most precious gift one can give another. All seek love, but few hold on to it, and what is the saddest thing of all, is that the love they pass by today will haunt them tomorrow. The more blind you become to the sight, reality and understanding of love the more willing you are to toss it away as refuse. By, Cerenity "God doesn't have to be reminded that we exist.

LittleCerenity~ I believe that the secret to love is giving away more than you keep. If we give until it feels good ... then it always does. These are just beautiful thoughts that you've shared with us. What a tender heart you hold within you. *HUGS* from mine to yours. Love ya' ... ~*Marge*~< !signature--> ~*The pen of the poet never runs out of ink, as long as we breathe.*~ [email protected] [This message has been edited by Marge Tindal (edited 07-15-2000).] |

Cerenity, Nice writing here. There is much truth in your words my friend. Sadly most do not realize what they had until it is too late and they threw it away. I like this one a lot. LW Poetry should surprise by fine excess...it should strike the reader as a wording of his own highest thoughts and appear almost a remembrance. -J.Keats |
