Understanding Love

Understanding Love

A Poem by Sam Freeland
"

make it real

"
Whenever love becomes
mere acquisition
Your caring will suffer
some serious attrition
 
Do you really believe
you can take all you want
Leaving nothing to achieve
while caring you flaunt
 
Such behavior is seen
in too many today
Acquiring is not keen
if that's the way you play
 
To really love fairly
and plan what you do
You then can believe
there is a future too
 
There are so many ways
to give and receive
Any time this happens
there is far less to grieve
 
The example you set
for many others to see
Will bring happiness to them
and make us all more free
 
Freedom and caring
will help everyone find
The love that they wanted
by being more kind
 
Whatever you do
remember love is a gift
Benefitting everyone
giving us all a lift
