Life’s Sweet Mystery

Love is like magic
It always will be,
For love still remains
Life’s sweet mystery.

Love works in ways
That are wondrous and strange
There’s nothing in life
That love cannot change.

Love can transform
The most common place
Into beauty and splendor,
Sweetness and grace.

Love is unselfish,
Understanding and kind
For it sees with its heart
And not with its mind.

Love is the answer
That everyone seeks
Love is the language
That every heart speaks.

Love can’t be bought,
It is priceless and free.
Love is like pure magic
It’s life’s sweet mystery.
