A unique composition! Loved the way things have been expressed!
Indeed love is not all, but one of the beautiful sides of life.
Indeed, the basic needs of human being - food, shelter, clothing... all come before love. An insightful poem elegantly brought forth with conviction.
Great write, this is fantastic. Nicely written great sage

.......I truly believe love is God and love can do all things.....supply us with food and drink.....a roof against the rain....a floating spar for the men who rise and sink, rise and sink....even repair our broken bones and give us the air we breathe....and yes truly life is not worth living without God (love)
Matthew's comments sum up this poem so perfectly! Needless for me to add more!
Love is not all and love is not goal but love is pearl of heart expression; nice to read
