True Love in Every line

True love does not just make the world go ‘round,
God makes the world go ‘round, for God is love,
love makes no sense--no scent, no scene, no sound,
for love supplies the soul what souls dream of.

Though it’s unseen, love can inspire desire,
though it is felt, love’s not for how we feel,
love draws us to the higher we aspire,
for real, love does require the God appeal.

Love overflows, it grows the more we share,
love turns an enemy into a brother,
love’s not for us, it dares because we care,
true love must be directed to the other.

So let’s not kid ourselves, love’s understood--
not bad nor brief, love is, like God, for good.
