Love is a four letter word that can soothe your soul

Tonight's poem is short. Hopefully I add some more lines and edit what's there. But I think I got down the gist of what I wanted to say.

Love is tonight’s theme
Not the sexual attraction kind of love between two people,
Not unconditional parent/child love,
I’m talking about the love you can feel for a person
or a group of people
Who make you feel like you are part of something bigger than any of you,
Who make you feel welcome,
Who nurture you with actions and words,
Unsolicited,
Just because that is what they do
That is who they are

Tender, warm, happy
Love that makes you feel whole. 

Love that soothes and feeds your soul.
