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?
