Love


Sustains without yielding, love endures
Heals , restores, love cures
Changes for the better, love adapts
Has confidence and certainty, love trusts

Pledges, binds, love commits
Sends forth a radiant light, love emits
Has faith, and confidence, love believes
Accepts the whole package, love receives

Gives up one’s self, love surrenders
Restores, returns, love renders
Guards against assault, love defends
Sets things right, love mends

Has full trust, reveals assured, love confides
Meets needs and caress for, love provides
Serves unselfishly, love gives
Wipes clean the past, love forgives

Understands, love knows
Deepens connection, love grows
Gently points out truth, love corrects
Shows regard, love respects

Requests and yearns, love desires
Takes pleasure and approves, love admires
Follows willingly, love submits
Entrusts freedom, love permits

Has an equal part, love shares
Holds up, supports, love bears
Persists through challenges, love perseveres
Devoted, clings fast, love adheres

I've been trying to leave a comment on your I love faces entry (hands). I don't think the comments are working...or I am having a senior (51 years old) moment! Anyway, your photo is adorable...it's a look every mom has seen and never forgets!
