when they feel love, how do we know?
 just saying it won't make it so;
 we have to see and feel it, or
 we'll always wait for something more.
 
 but actions, as they say, are loud,
 and love is anything but proud:
 it glories when it stops and makes
 the helping gestures that it takes

 to manifest, and make it known
 that love is felt, when love

 is shown
