Love comes pure, with wisdom and faith
it can stand when nothing else will
It keeps on giving, sharing and forgiving
and it never ever carries any ill
Love smoothes the surface of aches and pains
It keeps reaching for higher ground
It goes beyond, that extra mile
It picks you up when you are down
It stretches outward to boundless heights
It binds up the broken heart
It's like, a medicine, that soothes within
to mend all the torn up parts
Love will weigh out, when all else fail
on Valentine's Day, it's proven in this way
There are flowers, candy, gifts wrapped so dandy
so that many words you won't have to say
For acts and deeds will show this love
maybe a card, with, spicy thoughts
Rather family or firend or that special one
these things, the heart had bought
