What is Love

What Is Love!

What is Love?
     No words can define it.
It's something so great
Only God could design it
Wonder of Wonders,
Beyond man's conception,
And only in God
    Can love find true perfection.
For love means much more
Than small words can express,
For what man calls love
        Is so very much less
     Than the beauty and depth
And the tru richness of
God's gift to mankind~~
His compassionate love
     For love has become
A word that's misused,
     Perverted, distorted,
And often abused
To speak of "light romance"
Or some affinity for
A passing attraction
That is seldom much more
     Than a mere interlude
Of inflamed fascination,
A romantic fling
Of no lasting duration
     But love is enduring

And patient and kind.
It judges all things
With the heart, not the mind.
And love can transform
The most commonplace
Into beauty and splendor
And sweetness and grace
For love is unselfish,
       Giving more than it takes,
And no matter what happens
Love never forsakes
It's faithful and trusting
     And always believing,
Guileless and honest
And never deceiving  &
Yes, love is beyond
     What man can define,
For love is Immortal
And God's Gift is Divine!
