Loving-kindnesses being showered
on all life at this very hour
So, the wise are unusually centered
like a bride who is truly treasured since
we need love as much as anything
We’re as vulnerable as some flowers
and so lonely though it’s so crowded
We’re in war, indeed, watch your step but
most assuredly life’s a venture, since
we need love as much as anything
Make the right decision
though it’s an election and
totally up to him
All need love, this, we recognize
every hour, every second and
more than air, every breath we take
we need power, and we get it since
we need love as much as anything
Love like soldiers, in the field
Love like Jesus, love like healers
Love like teachers, love like builders
Love like seniors, love like children, since
we need love as much as anything
Love in action
To act fast to match the enemy
We’ll surpass them
And won’t lack a single thing
Love is food, food in season
Love is truth, fruit for healing
Love is resting from all life’s troubles
Love is exercise, love, not drugs, since
we need love as much as anything
Love is coffee, loving cupfuls
love is water, sip or chug it
lifting others, when they’re down and
lifting up we need love now since
we need love as much as anything
Love is all of this, but it is a mystery
Love is giving, and it’s taking
It’s consistent, not forsaking
Love’s the heart of life’s one lifeline
with the partner of a lifetime since
we need love as much as anything
Love like fathers, love like mothers
love like sisters, love like brothers
loving wives and loving husbands
loving wisely, and grown up, since
we need love as much as anything
It’s mysterious
Love like kings and love like queens and
Casanovas, Valentinos
Bring them over, on the double
when we’re winning, or in trouble, since
we need love as much as anything
What is love, then? It’s an energy
Not enough when some are questioning
We need truckloads, it’s worth mentioning
But those trusting are still getting it, since
we need love as much as anything
Don’t look back as
we, all, fast approach the next best thing
