Poem #251 Respect & Love


Respect is freely given to all

for while it is in short supply

with high demand,

it is not a commodity.

As such, the rules of economics

matter little to it

for each person has the potential

to give it freely to all

and likewise receive it.

It takes little effort to extend it

to all who exist.


Love is much the same,

though it costs more

and in higher demand than high regard

it is better received when freely given.
