What does it feel like to be in love?
Is it when you want nothing more than him?
When you get that bubbly feeling,
And fill with joy and whim?

Is it the feeling of a warm summer rain,
Or snowflakes on your skin?
Is it like sunshine peeking through clouds,
Or watching colorful leaves dwindle and spin?

Is it like rolling around in the snow,
Or skipping stones on the shore?
Is it like climbing high in a tree just for the thrill,
Or like melting ice cream dripping to the floor?

Is it like jumping off the deep end at the pool,
Or like running barefoot through grass covered in dew?
Is it like star gazing on a long summer night,
Or like reaching for the sky, so crystal and blue?

Does it taste like watermelons at a picnic,
Or like candy canes at Christmas time?
Does it smell like the woods in autumn,
Or taste fruity like orange, lemon, or lime?

Does it sound like birds chirping in the early morn,
Or like a pack of wolves howling late in the night?
Does it sound like hooves pounding, unhindered and free,
Or like children laughing, so blissful and light?

Does it look like couples walking hand and hand,
Or like a baby in a mother’s loving clutch?
Does it look like teens embracing each other,
With a very gentle and caring touch?

Is love the way he smiles,
Or the color of his eyes?
Is it the way he makes me feel,
As if he is no ordinary guy?

So what is love,
Is it all of this and more?
Is it simply adoration,
Or feelings galore?

I don’t know what love is,
But maybe you do.
Maybe it’s just a silly fantasy,
Or something magnificent and true.

However, I do know this.
That somewhere out in this great abyss,
In a world of hate and sorrow,
Love exists.

So find love today,
And be sure to share.
Love is all around us,
So go on, get out there.
