ULTIMATE LOVE



There is this word construed

Quite mightily used

In some seasons abused

And could be misconstrued


Love, love from everyone else

Could be about someone else

Or more with someone else

Or beyond everyone else


Is love Philia, in its place

On a love platonic base

Cannot permit disgrace

A David, Jonathan embrace


Can it be Ludus, all in a game

Hearts passed around in a ballgame

Or “Playa Playa” a young man’s game

Ego driven, for fun and for selfish gain


Is love from online dating

Your preconditions in front stating

Your resume, all upfront in rating

Love called Pragma, all on scale weighting


Or say, described as: Storge

A family love you cannot forge

A stream that flows as through a gorge

Enduring and caring, called Storge


Eros! a romantic act, when in the mood

For some men to delight their manhood

Not deep in depth in a heart’s neighborhood

The type that mostly plays in Hollywood


All four can shift

Like in a lightning, swift

Or can crawl to walk, transform

And walk to run to conform


But Agape, Love from him mightily

Cannot be possessed all lightly

Selfless driven, given rightly

He gives it to us most kindly
