Valentine’s Day: What is love?
Is love the cards and candy
we give on Valentine’s Day?
Is it the flowers and balloons
we might give on a birthday?
Is it giving our love everything
he or she desires…
Watches, rings, diamonds…
vacations to dream-like islands…
Or, could real love be having
a conversation and listening…any day
Really listening and responding
as one who truly cares…any day
Listening, and when we are confused,
letting our loved one explain again…any day
As we listen with desires to
understand…we love.
Possibly, this communication
is real love…
Perhaps, patience in hearing
what our loved one is saying
is a true type of love…
Promises of caring and listening
could very well be a forever love…
any day.
