I thought this appropriate on Valentine's day. It is a piece done a long time ago.
----------------------------------------------------

My love has no top or bottom or sides
It has no depth or limit of any kind.
It does not think or ask questions.
It offers no logical answers.
It makes no judgements and cannot be judged.
It does not lie and knows not when it has been deceived.
It creates no pain but, suffers often.
It has no ambition nor does it seek advantage.
Yet, it is often victimized and used.
It neither takes up space nor partakes food.
Yet, it nourishes me.
It offers comfort.
Yet, seeks no reward or aknowledgement.
It is never selfish.
Yet, it is often deprived of a fair return.
It cannot be touched or broken,
yet it is delicate and sensitive.
It does not speak.
Yet, it's message is clear.
It cares not for itself nor does it seek shelter.
Yet, it remains healthy and vital.
It seeks no publicity.
Yet, it is known to many, scorned by some, ignored
By others.
It knows neither right or wrong, night or day,
Law or justice.
Yet, it remains pure and simple and innocent.
It has no age.
Yet, it remains young to it's purpose.
It has no beginning, no end.
It has no time, no place.
It is but a speck in the vastness of the universe.
It has no monetary value at all.
Yet, it is valuable beyond measure.
It is everything I am or ever will be.
It is life itself.

the woods are lovely, dark, and deep, but I have promises to keep, and many miles to go before I sleep...Frost

This is incredible! I read this exquisite poem two or three times to soak in all the wisdom it contains, and you have managed to pack in a huge amount of wise and wonderful truths of what love truly is!!Ellie

A friend hears the song in my heart, and sings it to me when my memory fails.

I don't think you left anything out! It's an enormous subject, but you have written well!
