The Gift Of Love Counterbalances Much Poem by Chuy Amante

the gift of love
is it well wrapped?
In thick paper
dripping in fine
perfume,
Flashy, hip,
and with a siren

is it on layaway
until you can afford
to love?

Was it purchased
by credit and you're
still paying for it?
LOL!

Did you sell your body
and soul for it?
(hey, at least I still
have to box it came in)

was the gift of love
just a fairy tale
in a repeating dream?

was the gift of love
received and opened
and shared and has it
functioned like a candle
lighting the world around
with It?

I know you
are gifted,
one could say,
well endowed; -0, ; >~
do you gift
love?

to get is to give
or is it
to give is to get?

love
the real deal
no contract
full acceptance
'as is'
a glorious rare gift!
GIVE IT abundantly
NOW
love
