RHYMES FOR A REASON: Love
Love is a flame, Yearning to be with another,
Love is to desire,
To cherish,
Love defies boundaries,
A force no one can stop,
Love makes a person forget the world,
To forsake all other's,
Love is gentle and kind
A feeling that cannot be denied,
Love is true and pure,
Love is strong enough to melt any armor,
Love makes your heart miss a beat,
It makes you act foolish, and crazy
Love makes you laugh and cry,
Love is a flame,
Yearning to be with another.
By George Linley, aged 13, of Dronfield
