NATURE OF LOVE

Love can be discerned in a look

Received in the heart

Felt in a touch

Experienced in the soul

Yet in all of its variety

Beauty, differences and demands

Love remains love

Graceful and joyous

Understanding

Never demeaning

Always wanting to expand

Consume and be consumed

To fulfill and be fulfilled

It is fieriness, passion

Gentleness, strength

At the same time

Wild and innocent
