Five-Star Love’s for You

One star is for loving, a deep emotional passion,
Two stars are for caring, wishing well without a ration,
Three stars are for warmth, a very happy situation,
Four stars are for tenderness, the finest institution,
While five stars are for togetherness, the kindest strength solution.
For these five stars, we test our pride and will for retribution,
But pride can never be excused by any lover’s station!

Foster charm and promise, but never use great pride
To free your inhibitions while your inner child may hide.
Strength comes not from selfishness where ego may reside,
But from cheers and compromise you willingly abide.
All five stars seem somehow worth your Heaven’s saintly glide,
Yet there’s no get-rich mindset for the angels by your side…
As for love, you’ll know the truth – a sure heart is your guide.
