The Love from God

By chance if I could speak,
In tongues of man and beast;
Of a love that's unique,
For west in meeting east.

A love patient and kind,
Showing others you care;
And that eases your mind,
While willing to share.

A love that's not stingy,
Having selfish motives;
But an apology,
And a love that forgives.

A love that's built on trust,
A love that never fails;
But one not filled with lust,
Having perverse details.

A love not of this earth,
Rather flows from Heaven;
And that gives me rebirth,
Since I am forgiven.
