What is Love?featured

what is love to you? Love is that feeling of happiness you get when you find the prize in the box of cracker jacks. Love is the way your heart flutters when someone gently touches your skin. Love are those kisses that find their way to your nose. Love is the end of a bad night and the beginning of a good morning. Love is laughing at a joke that wasn’t funny. Love is counting the flaws as if they were blessings. Love is wrapping your legs around something besides a blanket. Love is watching a hummingbird flutter pass your window. Love is that onion ring you find in your french fries. Love is that puppy that nuzzles up beside you in your bed. Love is that freckle that looks like a heart. Love is the gum in the middle of your blowpop. Love is that cloud that looks close enough to touch. Love is that crescent moon you can’t help but smile at. Love is that lake the rainstorm makes in the middle of your backyard. Love is that tear that runs down your cheek when you are proud of someone. Love is that hug you didn’t expect. Love is that story you thought they forgot. Love is that detail you will always remember. Love is that perfume that reminds you of last summer. Love is that place you escaped to all those nights alone. Love is that smile a stranger returns. Love is that promise you never broke. Love is that friend you call a cousin. Love is that cousin you call a sibling. Love is that wish you make at 11: 11. Love is that thought you think before bed. Love is that wind that graces your arm on a hot day. Love is that snow angel someone made before you got there. Love is that message someone left in the sand. Love is that scent on your pillow. Love is that sigh of relief when you get somewhere a minute early. Love is the period at the end of a long essay.
