Love Is The Answer

Life can be a lonely experience
If there is no one with whom you are close
That's the nature of human existence
For which some, sad to say, get no repose

Despite all our material wealth
And our intellectual wisdom
Although we may have good physical health
Our lives can still be filled with boredom

Loving someone who loves you in return
Is a most wonderful experience
Beside the respect from others you earn
This feeling of love is par excellence

If in your life you are seeking meaning
And find that it poses a dilemma
You can finally end all your searching
And be assured that Love is the answer

About this poem:
Loving and being loved in return is a priceless treasure
which gives meaning to human existence.

There are many kinds of Love -
a man for his God
a man for his woman
a friend for his friend
a person for his kin
a man for his pet animal
- these and many more

If it is true love yes. Unfortunately, on these sites I have found that that is rare indeed. Too many people trying to take advantage of people seeking true love. Beautiful poem Socrates - thank you for sharing! heart wings angel2

Love is the answer, there is nothing better, it is our ultimate purpose in life. Those who have it mostly do not appreciate its worth. The older we get love is harder to find. My blessings to all who are searching for love despite everything! Thank you, dear poet, for sharing!tip hat bouquet

Enjoyed the thoughts and I certainly agree.True love is better to have than wealth.

I know you love your pets and I am sure they love you in return.
Perhaps their love is more faithful and dependable
than the love of human beings.
The important thing is the love shared.

Best regards to you!
