The Element of Love

Ever wondered how we fall in love?
Have we been paired by the stars up above
Do you think that falling in love could be
Divine Intervention for you and for me?

If these feelings are dispensed from Heaven?
How were we matched ? Odd and even ?
How will we know when we are in love?
Will we hear music and bells from above?

Sometimes the person you’ve brushed aside
Will be the one to make you his bride
And sometimes the dashing person you hoped to attract
Will turn out a dull bore and just a gas-bag!

In physics we learn that ‘opposites attract’
Could we be matched, just like magnets?
Little is known of this thing called ‘love’
Has this been destined from up above?

How will you know when love comes to you
Love is as old as time and is nothing new
So prepare for it by making ties that bind
And be more open and alert as love can be blind

This thing called love intrigues me too
It makes no distinction between the rich or the poor
When you find it, be sure to treasure it close
Deep down in your heart, ne’er to dispose!

Take heart my friends for love can be found
In oddest places and it’s all around
Open your hearts and let love in
Some loving heart, you’re sure to win.
