Sonnet- On Love

Each one wants Love of some kind or other!
And animals want love too in some way;
Appreciation, all want, O brother;
We need more love to spend another day.

Love is what rules the Universe from birth;
Love is what for earthlings strive, endlessly;
Love is what created man and the Earth;
Love is the force that binds all, tenderly.

Yet, all want Love to be show'red upon them;
And no one wants to love his neighbour well;
Love is soul's wealth-a magnificient Gem;
And hate is that which transforms world to hell.

Express your love to earthlings, if you can;
For without Love, you cease to be a Man!
