Love

a poem by Aparna Ramnath

Love is such a wonderful thing
With all the joy that it can bring,
Happiness and warmth that has to be found,
Love is a feeling that has no bound.

Love is such that it can nourish,
Give us health and make us flourish,
A tonic that is so sweet to taste
Without which life is but a waste.

Love is a gift that we have to give
To all around as long as we live,
Love is a blessing that we receive
Something to cherish, never to deceive.

Love is a treasure to be shared by all,
A common bond to unite one and all,
With all the joy that it can bring,
Love is such a wonderful thing.
