Love Is
By James Cucinella
Love is special
Like a rainbow, the first snowfall,
the sunrise.
Love is warm
like summer, three soft blankets,
coming home.
Love is happy
like a ride on the roller coaster,
a kitten's purr, pretending.
Love is gentle
like a lady bug, soft rainfall,
happy dreams.
Love is strong
like a great tree, an anchor,
telling the truth.
Love is dependable
like a firefly's light, the heartbeat,
springtime.
Love is big
like the sky, towering mountains,
the word "forever."
Love is beautiful
like the moon, having friends,
Christmas.
