Love gathers at the feet of us all as it calls out quietly our name.
We look and ask. What is love doing there so oddly, so lame?
Love looks up with soft eyes of only love pleading so sadly now.
Shedding a tear love says, "I'm always just as near, as you allow."
You tread on love as much as you don't love yourself until told.
You move into love when love moves in you to be you.
Create a path for love with your feet of gold so boldly rolled.
Love those you meet. Greet all not so silently, still only so cold.
Love is a measure of soul climbing love's ladder to God.
Do you love from above, or from below all just to show?
Glow with real love, not still holding lost love in its pain.
Flow by allowing love to take hold & hold on to your gain.
God's heart is pained in remembrance of you once loving.
Sadly pain creates a stain of itself to remain in your brain.
Pain's pain defies gain in all, but love still deep in your heart.
Love is the fullness of creation living in you as your part.
Love is not just a sad memory of itself gone stonily too cold.
Love is not just holding pain to train yourself in hurting.
Love is not ever a creation of anything, but love converting.
Love is love is love. Love is simply folding into itself as you.

Poetry: What is love?
Is it love, this warmth inside? A glowing.
A growing sense. An indecisive mind.
Fractured light on searching
The crescent moon
suspended
like a pendulum
in the sky.
It starts to swing in sync
with the tides.
Always changing
but constant
by S Barnard
This thing called Love
Shares the taste of sweet bitter emotion
A shoulder to lean on
Unconditional devotion
Then again
by Ronnie Reese
It’s a movement in the mind
A tugging at the heart,
The jerking of your chain
That pulls your world apart.
This feeling,
Love is life's sweet reward,
for without it
life would be a meaningless
abyss.
Love has no reason,
but infinite purpose.
