The Constant

I have a story to tell
of when I fell 
and love picked me up.
Did it stop me?  No!
I still fell again
and again.

But love is constant,
Love accepts
Love frees
Love supports

Finally
I picked myself up
and I stood straight
accepted
strengthened
supported 
and love was still there
waiting.

April 18 Prompt: “Stop! In the name of love, before you break my heart!”—write a poem where love turns everything around somehow, or stops a course of action, or stops everything!

Yes Judi this is a loving piece of brilliance -- made my cold old relationship poem, seem even colder;-) Well done
