My Philosophy of
Love…
Love is the question
philosophers ponder
And a priceless
fortune which humans squander
It is selfless and
selfish, caring and sharing
Shy and reserved,
bold and daring
It's the tears of
happiness and the heartache of sorrow
Yesterday's dreams
and the hope for tomorrow
It's the quickening
pulse at the mere thought of another
The compassion one
feels for the pain of a brother

Very good poem about a timeless subject. There is music of words and meaning. Especially like the last 2 lines, gives something to think on.
