When you love
It can take away
Well at least
Soften those
Rough edges
When you love
It brings
A season
Of gold
Glittering in
The glorious light
When you love
A spring
No, a geyser
Of joy
Flowing freely
Inviting new eyes

Within the eyes
Of another
When you love
An opportunity
Is afforded another
Afforded to you
Embrace and grow
Moving into
The gift offered
