Love is something I can't explain
Love is something as calming as rain
Love is the cookies my mother bakes
Love is the gentle falling of snow flakes
Love is the soft body of a newborn kitten
Love is the warmth of brand new mittens
Love is the taste of strawberries in my mouth
Love is saying farewell to the birds flying south
Love is as fiery as the heat of summer
Love is a feeling like no other

"You know you’re a writer if your friend tells you a heartbreaking story and your first reaction is – wow, that would make an incredible plot for a novel. You know you’re a smart writer if you manage to keep that reaction to yourself."

I'm always fascinated by other perspectives in love. It's just one of those phenomenas logic fails to explain, isn't it? This sonnet is every beautiful. ^_^

1 timothy 4:12 Don&#039;t let anyone look down on you because you are young, but set an example for the believers in speech, in life, in love, in faith and in purity.

I really like this one! You use examples that most people wouldn't think of. Keep it up :)
