Giving love

I feel like I give more love

Than love I am given

I am the beloved toy 

On the top shelf

Sought for when needed comfort

But always put back

On the top shelf

I'm like a joyously rich flower

Nectar oozing from my petals

But then I am robbed 

Of my joy

By bees and insects

Slowly draining me

Like the shore 

For waves to crash on

Others crash their pain on me

But without me

Waves would never crash

Just forever fall

Than love I am given

I feel like I give more love

[Coyote Poetry]

Old wise saying. When you want your lover to be content over your need. Your reward will be repaid in their happiness and your happiness."
"Than love I am given
I feel like I give more love"
Love is the best gift we can share and the reward is knowing. Love is in us. Thank you Jen for sharing the excellent poetry.
