Love is...

Being Love means different possibilities to some, but to all…

Poem Artwork

 Love is…




Once upon a long time ago…

Beneficence rose from Man’s dusty landscape of kill or be killed

Became…


An indiscriminate emotional principle needing purchase

Love started to evolve…


Realizing it was not the sole property of man


Love embraced yesterday’s four and two-legged beasts as well…



Teaching all of life was in a constantly changing evolution

Love invited…


Nature’s flowers and trees, insects and fowl of all sorts 
As its caring message was felt and understood…

The fortunate realized…


Love is the dream in Life’s deep sleep
A reality that can be ignored and abused
But never destroyed

Never having to say, 'I'm sorry.' Thinking back to that short novel and movie the devastated my girlfriend at the time.

But you seem to describe Love as something that came later in our development.

One thing I've noticed about indigenous people. When they kill for food, they all seem to have a way of honoring their love for that animal, bird or fish that gave its life so that the hunter and his family could live.

We have lost that love unless we become a vegan society with manufactured foods are no longer have to kill loving animals to eat protein. Actually begin loving our earth more than we do right now.

Another brave poet who takes on the subject of love and gives it perceptive meaning. Love means many things to different people but the same thing to all people, as "the dream in Life's deep sleep."
