Without love we die

The
Earth would die
If the sun stopped kissing her.

In the heat of the summer
The plants soon wilt without water

And dogs without affection
Grow sorrowful,

And children, without nurture
Soon wilt

All creation needs
To be touched with warmth
And love

When we do not get kissed
When that is not there

No matter what else we have
Money
Power
Prestige
Success

We cannot waken to joy
We cannot fully live
And piece by piece
Day by day
We

die
