Picture by Alan Ayers

Love should never be imprisoned
It should be given wings to fly
Love is its own reward
Without love you can't get by

Love should always be respected
For an eternity love will shine
Love is like a precious jewel
So delicate and so refined

Love is food for the heart
It should be allowed to grow
When you open up your heart
Like a river love will flow

Love does not discriminate
It touches all of mankind
Love can make a king a slave
For some, love can make you blind

Love orchestrates my heart
As I conduct my words in rhyme
Love cannot be overpowered
It will stand the test of time

"Love is the master of all ceremonies"
-Sue Tancheff-

I am in motion
I am blue
Love is an ocean
I'm anchored in you

do you ever get tired of hearing that about your poetry? It's the only word I can think of.

Indeed, it is all powerful when shared with the right someone.  Enjoyed this very much, Sue.
