All We Need 11/1/2023

Through the ups and downs
The ins and outs
And the thick and thins
Of life
All one needs
Is love
To make it through
Without any doubts. 

Tis the GPS we need
To help us navigate
Any emotional storm
That brews within
Our thoughts. 

Tis the Peacemaker
That helps us mediate
Any disagreement
Between our friends
And lovers. 

TIs the Teacher
That instructs us in
The ways of life
Providing us a path
To follow in times of darkness.

 Tis all the above
And much more
Love is at the core
Of everything we do
Our purpose
And the meaning
We strive to receive
In our daily chores. 

Don’t turn away
Turn towards
Any situation
With love
In your heart
For that’s how
To receive more of it
And live a
Fulfilling life.
