A RIDDLE OF LOVE


It's size cannot be measured,
And it's power never seen,
Is found by neither hand or heart,
But somewhere in-between.

It's always free and plentiful
Yet worth a kingdoms gold,
It isn't something bought or made,
And never can be sold.

It's always warm and comforting,
And never cold to feel,
As clear as finest crystal,
In the truth it does reveal.

It's given in completeness,
Yet there's plenty more in store,
To find another like it,
You would search forever more.

Can sometimes seem to vanish,
In a silent filled disguise,
And yet will still be sitting there,
Before your very eyes.

It's lasting is eternal,
And always will it stay,
To comfort you, and be with you,
In each and every day.

It's taken half a lifetime,
To make it's worth so true.
But finally can give itself,
To one as sweet as you

The magic that it holds within,
Is all you really need.
Just put your faith in what I give,
To make this love succeed.

Awesome! And bursting with emotion. The one you’re speaking to will surely accept your devotion.

I really enjoyed this one. Though in MY life, it's still a riddle.

Very nice read. Kate
