True love is earned with thought and deed
A blossom of beauty after planting a seed
A memory in life benign
Of a spouse or child
Or a pet ever so kind
love is an odor that brings back memories
It is found on a street of fearless endeavors
It is all around you in the earth and the sky
The thrill of love will make you high
Broken hearts never lose faith
because true love is a vast chasm
You wander through and always feel safe
The world goes on with love on its sleeve
for you and for me to always retrieve.
