Action!
Through all the twist and turns
Of love you speak
You speak it well
You never stop
Still your heart it yearns
The Butterflies they took their turn
Their wings your eyes adored
Fluttering from flower to your net
Oh’ how you loved them
Put them in a vitreous urn
The cockatoo
Had a golden cage
He even talks to you of love
The words you taught him well
You loved him too
The little pooch
Your favourite friend
Adorable and true
Didn’t fit your schedule now
But you loved him too
Your children didn’t mind your hugs
You really loved them too
Gave all you had to give
More so than you should
Abandoned you, and now are thugs
Sometimes love is hard or sweet
Depending on its need
Not your need alone
What is best for others
Then love comes back indeed
Love is not a wondrous phrase
Just for the prose
To be talked about
In abstract jibe
Or something that you chase
Love is gives and takes
An action verb
No life it has its own
Unless it’s shown
It’s you that love creates!
