Love before you’re born

A sonnet

You need to be king
before you can conquer
You need to be brave
before you can fight
You need to be high
before you can fly
You need to fear
before you can be free
You need to hear
before you can listen
You need to teach
before you can learn
You need to love
before you can be born.
