    Poem Commentary

    I didn't understand love,
    she wanted to help.
    We are not very close
    It did. 

    The art of love



    Love is the "affirmative of affirmatives"
    it enlarges the vision,
    expands the heart.

    Love is the dove of peace,
    the spirit of brotherhood;
    it is tenderness and compassion,
    forgiveness and tolerance.

    Love is the dynamic motivation behind
    every worthy purpose;
    it is the upward thrust
    that lifts men to new heights.

    The art of love is God at work through you.

    That's the best way to decribe it, like the upward thrust that lifts men to new heights. Great God Thinking

    Hey, I would so buy this card - look out Hallmark,,, though really not to cheapen the sentiment, your word of description capture the essence of a word that has a million meanings. Well Done - keep creating beautifully (that lifts women to new heights)
