Gods gift.

By John P.

Love is like a river,

A never ending stream.

Love is shared by each other,

To answer someones dream.

It’s a never ending story,

Love is not a lie.

You can share in all your glory,

For love will never die.

Love is all around you,

The moon and stars above.

Love is a gift from god,

And God is a gift of love.

My sister likes this poem’s rhyme and simple structure, which makes her feel calm. She likes the comparison of love to a river and a stream as it suggests that love flows calmly and easily. She likes the short line “Love is not a lie” because the poet states it as if it is a fact.
