Analysis of Love Can Be

Ronald Bunch 1982 (Grand Rapids)



Love can be a dancing ray,
Love can be a raining day.

Love can be a merciful rod,
Love can be a thankful god.

Love can be a dancing stance,
Love can be a glancing trance.

Love can be a disco robot,
Love can be a Cisco horse trot.

Love can be a dancing flamingo,
Love can be a smiling Ringo.

Love can be spanked by God,
Love can be thanked in a nod.

Love can be a swinging dance,
Love can be a smiling glance.

Love can be a soaring eagle,
Love can be a waging beagle.

Love can be a sent rainbow,
Love can be a present tied bow.

Love can be the harvest,
Love can be the best.

Love can be a singing rock star,
Love can be a shining star.

Love can be opening a present,
Love can be groping with consent.

Love can be a mournful bird,
Love can be a thankful word.

Love can be a rhyming verse,
Love can be a caring nurse.

Love can be painting a house,
Love can be petting a mouse.

Love can be a pet cat,
Love can be a set hat.

Love can be a stroking pen,
Love can be a loving den.

Love can be a lit candle,
Love can be a nit sandal.

Love can be my feet shod,
Love can be my neat God.
