What is Love?

by David Cohen 10/02

Love is a mere shadow.
You can't touch a shadow a you cannot touch love.
It is silent, but you know it is there.
Love is just a feeling.
You feel it in your mind.
You feel it all over you.
Love is a warm feeling.
In some cases love is good, but in others it is not so.
Some people love things that are bad: for example
control and power.
It is good to love people, peace and freedom.
I don't know if the sun loves us. You probably need a
brain to love.

I know people love, but I don't know if the sun loves the earth.

I love all animals; just because it can sting, poison or bite
doesn't mean it is a bad character.

I love my family as a pirate loves his gold.
