Love is a Warrior
Love is not a summer cloud, wispy and frail
Love is a storm rolling in, thunder and rain
Love is a warrior; love will never fail
Love is not the bubbles floating in champagne
Love is a guardian, breaking evil’s bones
Love is a warrior, a wild hurricane
Love is not lust, desire, or mere hormones
Love is a choice you make again and again
Love is a warrior; love may stand alone
Love is not thoughts and prayers without action
Love is kneeling in the dirt to be a shield
Love is a warrior; love’s shouting, “Amen!”
Love is justice and mercy and truth revealed
Love is every hurt and injury healed
Wow. This is an amazing take on the prompt! Favorite line is the last one: Love is every hurt and injury healed.
