People ask what is Love?
How can it be tamed?
Love can never be tamed.
Love asks nothing of us
But gives us all,
As Love is not of this world.

- Comment from author about the poem: I had read a passage in a book and this came to me. The youtube clip is The Beatles singing their first hit in 1962, I was there when they changed peoples lives in the 1960s, changed lives for the better.

A fine write Gold.
Ahh, I was probably in that clip. Around about that year I sort of gave up following 'Top of the Pops'. It got trashy later on, about 1995 onwards I think!
Much singing in 1066?
Thanks Orchi.
We sang in 1066 but it was your singing that made the Normans so mad, they wanted to stop that disgusting noise!
Love suffers long and is kind; love does not envy; love does not parade itself, is not [b]puffed up; does not behave rudely, does not seek its own, is not provoked, thinks no evil; does not rejoice in iniquity, but rejoices in the truth; bears all things, believes all things, hopes all things, endures all things.
Love never fails. But whether there are prophecies, they will fail.
excerpt from NKJV .. I always thought this was a good description of some of loves facets.
Your words are true, it is not of this world... but would we be richer if love encompassed this world?
That quote is very true da - 'love never fails".
We may not be richer if love encompassed the world but we would be happier as we helped ALL on our world. "Make love, not war".
Love is the greatest influence but it can only influence where it touches - great Write Andy
Thank you Michael, love touches all but some are too self centred to feel it.
Baby don't hurt me,
Don't hurt me,
No more!
(sorry, couldn't resist!)
Love will never hurt you.
I, too, believe Love is ethereal, not of this world. Science cannot analyze it, recreate it, or define it. True, eternal Love is a rare event, not something experienced by everyone, only a few.
You know it if you have it, miss it if you don't.
Well expressed, Gold. - Phil A.
Thank you Phil, yes love can be a rare event but it cannot be stopped once it happens.
Love is shown and felt. By kind deeds and grasping hands. Love you Goldie!
Thank you Kat you are most kind. Love is there for us all and can be shown in many ways.
THANKS ANDY ~ for your eulogy to the FAB FOUR. There is a naivety and raw Scouse ingenuousness in their early work which is why they were such an instant Universal success story ! Later they lost their cohesion because they became too famous individually ! And now their legacy is preserved by the ODD COUPLE ~ Paul & Ringo. Their LOVE SONGS were primitive but genuine ~ AMEN. "Love me Do" complements your poem ! Yours BRIAN & ANGELA ~ Love to JOYCE. Please check the Poem ZIMBABWE and our FUSION on AFRICA Thanks B & A !
Thank you A & B, The Beatles certainly changed life in the sixties, it helped give freedom to the younger generation, people talk about it now but to actually be part of it was wondrous.
Be true that! See there my friend
Thank you Dan.
