Love is

Love, the candle that brightly shines
and lights every crevice in your soul.

Love, is the hand that holds you tight
and pulls you to safety before you fall.

Love is the counsel of the wise
so hush, and listen to its words.

Love is the shield in the battles of life,
and the balm that soothes the weary heart.

So reach out your hand,
you have love to share,
just show someone
you really care.

    INSPIRING!!!!

    Love is often a word which is spoken so freely and not sincerely. To truly love is to open your heart, give compassion and understanding and above all never hurt.

    Belongs on a wall hanging in someones home. This is beautiful, my friend. You give a great and unconventional definition of a hard to define word.
