Love - Poem

Love

To love
To be loved
To make love
To create love
To feel love
To express love
To give and receive love
Nothing greater in the universe does exist
It is the meaning of life
It is the best thing that humanity can strive for
It is the essence of God
It IS God
Should all mankind focus on this
There would be no war
There would be no hate
Sorrow would be diminished
There would be less hunger
There would be more security
There would be no need for violence
There would be more compassion and understanding
When we turn from selfishness
And give of ourselves
Not only our lives
But everyone's lives
Become whole
We create
Heaven on earth
