a little love
One of the things I love about love is how it is so tiny from the start
but grows each day in its ability to make us laugh to make us cry…to even cure our heart.
How love is an entire universe within itself…continuously expanding
defying the laws of nature…and our simple understanding.
Just look at all the things we love…from the moment we come to be
Let’s start at the beginning…with friends and family.
As our friends and family grow…in age and shape and size…
our love does not diminish…in fact…it multiplies.
Every time we love a new friends or family member…it’s like our heart opens a door
to another room filled with love…a room we didn’t know existed before.
Even when our friends and family are made of different colors,
have different interests…different names…
We find our love is so accepting…we love them all the same.
And as we smile thinking of our friends and family…and how our love fills the air
we come to realize when we look around…our love does not stop there.
We love sunrises, sunsets, the stars that shine at night…the ability to dream
We love oceans, animals, pizza…chocolate and ice cream.
We love walking through the fog…mountains in the mist…
If you’re following the logic of this poem…we even love making lists!
And one of the wonders of love is how it never fits into a single frame
That though our lists will have some similarities…not two lists are the same.
I guess the one thing all our love has in common…a fact definitely worth knowing
is how, from the time when we are young…our list is always growing…
The point is…love…in all it’s forms has this uniques ability to lift us up…to make us soar
always giving us more opportunities to love…more possibilities to explore.
May we all experience this wonderful universe…where love is all around…
the loves we cherish each and every day…and the loves still waiting to be found.
