Love In Simpler Times Poem by Carolyn Ford Witt

* LOVE IN SIMPLER TIMES *

I wish we could go back to simpler times,
When our morals didn't include these sensual crimes,
For I don't understand the way things are now
Of handing out sex instead of Love. Oh, Wow!

Sex has no depth..It is just for the instant,
But Love is different..for you know the intent.
I'm sure that in history, you can all see the fall.
The '70's really did... change it all.

When the concept of Free Love came into being,
It sure clouded fellings...it sure clouded seeing.
But now, I can tell you, from the depths of my heart;
If you give away sex..without giving thought,

You'll loose of yourself, more then you can receive,
For yourself and another you'll surely deceive.
So please save the sex, until Love does appear,
Then remember to hold it in your heart so near.

For when Love comes to you and your heart starts to pound,
Just pray and ask God 'May I keep them around? '
Then know in your heart that His wisdom is good,
For your True Love, He will bring you the only way that He should.
