Do You Feel Loved?

It may be the essential – feeling loved:
The need that breeds endeavor.
Genes count, nature/nurture too,
Of course they do.  
But you?
How are you shaped on other fronts?
On every inner front that counts?

Upward-striving, brave, risk-taking?
Anti- any thought of faking?
Thin-skinned, concrete or faith based?
Seeing all as interfaced?

There is no shield to life or love,
Each quality a chance, an option;
Course of action,
Possibility if let.

Meeting, greeting all you get,
And every action a solution;
Taking love, rebuff – it all,
Direction never faltering.

In each action there exists
A universe of rules to choose from.
You suffused with
Feelings of
Concern and tenderness and feeling love(d).
