THE GIFT OF LOVE

 THE GIFT OF LOVE

By Tinig ni Maria

Love is water, it quenches your thirst

It refreshes your heart and your soul

You’ll understand when you get your first

Hear it in ballads and rock n’ roll

 

Love is a rose, in time it will bloom

Then you will see magical beauty

You will understand how love smells like

Uniquely sweet, stays in memory

 

Love is the sun, its touch cheers you up

It gives you that warm, fuzzy feeling

You’ll understand when you get a hug

Tender care that covers your being

 

Love is a fur coat, soft, smooth, and warm

It keeps you safe from the biting cold

You’ll understand once inside the arms

Of the person that you want to hold

 

Love is a song, a familiar refrain

Inviting you to just sing along

You’ll understand when you hear the tune

The voice that you will never get wrong

 

Love is a paper – white, crisp, and clean

Waiting for the touch of that black ink

You’ll understand once you start writing

Your own story of red, blue, and pink
