SOMETIMES WE JUST NEED A LOVE POEM

 

 

When our world turns upside down…when evil is threatening

from the ground to the skies above

It’s times like these amidst the chaos, the suffering and the pain

we need a little love.

 

So today I offer a little love poem…to each and every one of you

It has to do with why we say ‘I Love You’ as often as we do:

 

Why do we say ‘I Love You’ so often…

Why from our lips do these words flow… 

Why do we keep saying ‘I Love You’ 

to those who already know?”

 

I am not an expert on love…I don’t think I’ll ever be 

but when it comes to saying“I Love You’ so often

there are two reason I can see.

 

The first reason the words ‘I Love You’

in our vocabulary we will never lack…

is because we are happy to have found someone we love

who also loves us back…

 

The second reason: if something should happen to us tomorrow…

we want those we love and who love us to know 

 

That waiting on the other side of grief…at then end of all their tears…

are enough ‘I Love Yous’ stored in their hearts

to last for the rest of their years.

 

So there you have it…I’ve used ‘I Love You’ 8 times

in this little love poem to start you on your way…

and I wonder…

How many times and to whom…

will you say ‘I Love You’  today?
