Love

More precious than one’s own health, happiness or life

Ever forgiving the key to peace overcoming all strife

Unconditional, nonjudgmental, unending

Effort, space and time transcending

Not built on what one can touch, see or hear

Immortal, it knows no fear

Gentle yet strong

Always right never wrong

It can not be broken or lost

No matter the offense or the cost

Never controlling or constraining

Unchanging selflessness containing

Ever patient and all understanding

Always faithful never demanding

Based on what is inside not out

It leaves no room for doubt

An irresistible force

all things redeeming

It is the source

of true happiness and life’s very meaning
