The Treasure That Is Love Poem by Lora Colon
The Treasure That Is Love
Lengthening shadows were falling
When a spirit voice spoke in my ear:
'Treasure the love you were given....
Love born of a heavenly sphere
Bow down before love and worship,
See the beauty it brings to your soul,
Watch it as it changes your life....
As all of its wonders unfold
Hold this love in your hands gently -
Like a dove with a broken wing,
Bring love to your ear and listen,
If you're quiet, you'll hear it sing
Throw down your gold and your silver,
Cast aside all foolish treasure,
If love is flowing through your life,
You are rich beyond all measure'
So I treasure this precious love,
Each day, the mystery I retell.....
From the shadows, his love emerged,
And with me it chose to dwell
A poem as a poem should be, Beautiful in its entirety. Really Love-Ly!
Love's purist song intoxicating, burning away dross, purely liberating by soul infiltrating self extricating is love, love is A+++
Throw down your gold and your silver, Cast aside all foolish treasure, If love is flowing through your life, You are rich beyond all measure' Yes, love is the most valid treasure before which all other things are mere baubles! Enjoyed reading!
I found this to be a magical and moving piece as the poet personifies love in such a powerful manner. Well done poet Lora!
A wonderful poem. I concur with your thought here. Real love is more precious than the most expensive jewel. Thanks for shartng
