What Is Love?

“Daddy...what is love?” she asked with wonder in her eyes.
“There is no easy answer.” I said...
”Let me clarify.”

“Love is like the moon...
it softly enchants our gazes.
Its light is strong and infinite....
yet it goes though many phases.”

“Love is like the sun...
ablaze and fiery hot.
It is loud and bright and in many ways...
everything the moon is not.”

Love is like a tree...
it’s beauty...heaven-made.
It supplies us with the air we breathe,
and the comfort of it’s shade.”

“Love is like a flower...
whose aroma can fill a room.
Yet it too needs to be nurtured
if it ever is to bloom.”

“How do I explain love?” I said.
“I don’t know that I dare.”
But I do know if you look around
you’ll find love...
is everywhere.”
