The greatest joy comes from love
A warmth within the heart and soul
Like a gift tied in a pretty bow
To nurture another from the cold
Love comes in many packages
Each one with its own unique treasures
A mother, father, child, lover or friend
Each with its own sets of pleasures
But as we know Love’s joy is fleeting
Forever is not guaranteed to all
Perhaps in the heart it lives forever
But too many have experienced its fall
Whether in death onto a new realm
Or a relationship that is breaking
Love’s gift in not any guarantee
That you’ll have a fairytale ending
Yet be open to the gift of love
Wear it in your heart like a charm
Though it may be a temporary keepsakes
please let it wrap your soul with its arms
If you are blessed with love’s joy
Remember to pass on its pleasure
There’s so many precious souls
That will be grateful for the treasure

Thank you kindly Micheal, best to you and yours!
I don't usually respond to love poetry, but this one, yes..
Get it when you can , give it when you can and spread it if you can, even if, as you so rightly assert , it has to be temporary.
All the best...luck
Dave
