Imagining Love

Think of a doorway opening to paradise Softly unlocked by a tender kiss. Imagine the passion love will then fashion From eager hearts climbing this stairway to bliss. When love takes control of the very soul. Being 'in love' affects every minute Of every day, then through years of life's span Catch, if you can, the reason for you being 'in' it. 'In love' is far more than poetic phrase. It's a state of being - more than a state Of existing for pleasure, - caring's entailed. Imagine the difference love can create. Doorways to love have various faces. Parental and filial, and care for the old. Devotion to offspring, help for the helpless. Imagine how many love stories are told Which, rippling in circles, quench life's love-thirst. Watering another when troubles abound. Commitment to love is an awesome thing. But imagine a world without love around.
