Classic Poem

Something that makes you feel
Like a fool half the time.
Something that makes you act
Like a mule when he's blind.
Something over which you have
Absolutely no control,
Something that makes your blood hot,
And then it makes it cold.

2

Something that dulls your senses,
And then sometime make them keen
Something that makes you kind and sweet,
But sometimes makes you mean.
Something that makes the eyes soft.
And makes the heart beat fast.
Something that clings to memory
In the ctiy of the past.

3

Something that's high and holy,
Then sometimes it's mean and low,
But it will make you leap through fire,
It will make you wade through snow,
It will make you cross the ocean,
It will make you mount the air;
It will make you cross the desert;
It will make you curse and swear.

4

Something that makes you happy,
Then sometimes it makes you sad.
Something that makes you beetter,
Then sometimes it makes you bad.
It was this that made Adam
Have to leave his Eden home,
And 'twas this that made Ahasuerus
Bring Esther to his throne.

5

Something that's high as heaven,
Something deeper than a well.
Something so mysterious
That wise men fail to tell.
It makes of you a lion,
Then it makes of you a dove
This mysterious thing I speak of
Is, LOVE, love.
