Love Is The Only Currency

Love is the only currency - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - That can get us love For someone us to love Just give out love to that person So as to be loved back thereon Whether it is between wife and husband Or mother and child Or siblings or close friends Let us keep in mind That magic mantra or precious being As love that keeps us moving At the outset, it’s felt good Of every relationship whether of friends Kindred, mother and child As we focus only on things and things good But with time we start focusing In him/her what is lacking Taking all the good qualities For granted and counting his/her negatives To suit our needs and thanks to the law of attraction That keeps us getting more of lack and less of mien Then there are allegations and accusations And daily arguments ensue to the bone There are plenty of ‘what if’ and ‘if only’ And ‘yes, but” and ‘wish I had done things differently” And “but for you, my life would be heaven” Thus go things on and on to strain relations Instead of giving love, we tend to give other things Like judgement, anger, fear, worry, irritations, likes and dislikes That serve no heart upheld by hope and love Then what exactly is love? Love is anything that feels good Deep down that makes life look cheerful and profound Love is sharing, love is caring Love is accepting, love is giving Love is understanding, love is forgiving Love is respecting, love is trusting Love is faith, love is compassion Love is bending down to lift someone who is down Love is tackling our near and dear ones with an iron hand But within a velvet glove that does goad Love is harmony, love is life The absence of which is strife So go for love anyday, anytime, and anywhere Open your heart, become vulnerable and tender And connect to the heart of another For you are blessed with only jewel fair As love you can spare and love is the only currency That can get us love with warmth and ardency
