Love

I like this poem very much
but I don't know who is the author
I have kept this poem for a long time
and before I throw away the hard copy
let me keep it in my blog:

If you develop love truly great
rid of the desire to hold and possess
that strong, clean love untarnished by lust
that love which does not expect to be repayed
that love which is firm but not grasping
enduring but not tied down
gentle and settled
diamond-hang but unhurting
helpful but not interfering
cool and refresing
giving more than taking
dignified but not proud
soft but not weak
that love which leads to enlightenment
then you will be washed of all ill-will
