_{Ambient Love}

_{Might the baby of trust}

_{sense love?}

_{Might the child of innocence}

_{trust love?}

_{Might the infatuated teen}

_{discover love’s prelude?}

_{Might the adolescent dare}

_{find love’s meaning?}

_{Might the adult often live in life’s shadows}

_{feeling betrayed by love?}

_Perhaps

_Yet…

_{Years of experience gazes into his dog’s eyes}

_{embraces his wife’s or companion’s tears}

_{and finally accepts ambient love knows no bounds}

_{but holds to its rule}

_{Love is earned}

_{not given}
