Love Is Poem by Royston Nella

Love Is

Rating: 5.0


Love is patient and will always wait,
for the right moment then not hesitate.
Love is so kind and thinks only the best
and will withstand the most arduous test.

Love does not envy but gives all away.
It does not count the cost it has to pay.
Love does not boast, but with its' humble deeds
reaches out tenderly and intercedes.

Love is not proud nor acts arrogantly.
But always gives so extravagantly.
Love is never obscene or ever rude
and speaks only sweetness in servitude.

Love is not self-seeking but just desires
only the best for the one it admires.
Love does not get angry or get annoyed
but will hold its peace and conflict avoid.

Love keeps no account of the wrongs we do.
Cancels debts past, present and future too.
Love hates evil and in truth rejoices,
it speaks out against all lying voices.

Love always protects the one it desires,
and does not grow weary and never tires.
Love will always trust and will never doubt,
and in complete confidence reaches out.

Love will hope beyond the improbable,
and will always do the impossible.
For Love never fails and continues on,
and it will be there when all else has gone.

POET'S NOTES ABOUT THE POEM
! Corinthians 13
Love is patient, love is kind. It does not envy, it does not boast, it is not proud. It does not dishonour others, it is not self-seeking, it is not easily angered, it keeps no record of wrongs.Love does not delight in evil but rejoices with the truth It always protects, always trusts, always hopes, always perseveres.
Love never fails. But where there are prophecies, they will cease; where there are tongues, they will be stilled; where there is knowledge, it will pass away. For we know in part and we prophesy in part, but when completeness comes, what is in part disappears.When I was a child, I talked like a child, I thought like a child, I reasoned like a child. When I became a man, I put the ways of childhood behind me.For now we see only a reflection as in a mirror; then we shall see face to face. Now I know in part; then I shall know fully, even as I am fully known.
And now these three remain: faith, hope and love. But the greatest of these is love.
