Most everyone seeks it
From time to time
is it something you touch
or hold in your hand?
Can you see it
with your eyes open or shut?
Or taste it
on the tip of your tongue?
Can you hear it in your heart
or sense it in your soul
Or smell it like a Rose?
What is Love and Why
Do we love one and not another?
Is it their looks or
the way they smell
could it be the smile on their lips
or the gleam in their eyes
Or the way they make us feel?

Linda Franklin
