Array ( [sid] => 89420 [catid] => 1 [aid] => mick [title] => TRUE LOVE [time] => 2005-03-31 00:50:10 [hometext] => Love makes life worth living . . . Life worth living requires love. [bodytext] =>

At last … the truth is known.
Love is not a fleeting thought!
Like rare seed so carefully sown
the fruit of love is widely sought

Love is a glimpse of paradise …
a welcome, soothing, gentle breeze.
Not for sale at any price
yet … guaranteed to please.

Selfishness can not survive
where true love has entered in.
A spark ignites … love is alive!
To love is to begin.

Love, like the Sun, is warm and bright;
far reaching as the sky.
To those apart … love’s focused light
prevails beyond goodbye.

So, at last … the truth be known,
one’s heart sets true love free.
Though life be short … true love lives on
BEYOND ETERNITY !
