Love is Something We do to Each Other

  Love is somthing we do to each other
  and can not take it back
  It's like the mail--once dropped in the box
  it's in the hands o fa higher authority
  What's said is done and written in the heart
  and its best salutation is always
  your first name
  It stands alone. Always alone
  And you'll never know if it was received
  even if it was delivered in person
  Love is always generous
  and gives more than it takes
  It lives for a second helping
  and when the spoon goes in the dish
  a third or forth time
  it is a sermon on the mount--the loaves
  and fishes keep on coming
  Love is beyond value
  No scales can weigh it
  No accountant can account for it
  No poet can poet it
  It simply is something we do to each other
  and cannot take it back
