WHAT IS LOVE ?

You can't give , I am sure ,

An answer apt to the question.

Definitions or quotations may be,

But mind , would it be enough ?

My love , your love , their love

All the same ? then what's love ?

I say , you say " I love you so much "

Think , is it permanent , then what's love ?

For the rich, to purchase is impossible

No 'sale board' in the shopping place.

Is love inborn or earned?

Or can you instill or teach it ?

I'm your friend , some times today

You are my enemy on tomorrow.

Your wife ,your husband may be this year

A divorcee next year, then what's love ?

Can you say love is physical or mental ?

Or abstract or concrete ?

Will you love without expression ?

Or express without love ? then what's love ?

Love is real , you say

It's imagination , they believe !

Chase the new, those married couples !

Then what's love ?

A single mother kept on four or five

Plenty of time for their growth

But all the four , due to the 'lack of time'

In "old age home" locked her,

Then where is love ?

I like how you didn't try to describe what it is just how the fact that it's a complicated question with a variety of answers. Great work!
