Love is an emotion that can be expressed about any lifeform, inanimate object, time period, or spatial area. It is typically associated with affection, compassion, happiness, and when between people, sexual attraction. For Humans, it can be one of the strongest feelings one individual has for another and lead to procreation.
Captain Montgomery Scott once expressed his love for starships, particularly the starship Enterprise, by using an analogy about females, stating: "You don't ever love a woman quite the way you did that first one." (TNG: "Relics")
The Borg have referenced romantic love in over 6,000 assimilated species. (VOY: "The Disease")
Love in media
Love can be expressed through artistic means. In 2373, Q hoped Captain Kathryn Janeway would be seduced with a Drabian love sonnet. (VOY: "The Q and the Grey")
Movies on the subject of love are quite common in Human society. An example is Love's Lovely Love (ENT: "Cogenitor"). I Love Lucy was a popular television show in the 1950s. (ENT: "Carbon Creek").
In the 24th century, holoprograms involving love existed like "Vulcan Love Slave", and the sequels, "Vulcan Love Slave, Part Two: The Revenge" and "Vulcan Love Slave, Volume Three". (DS9: "The Ascent", "Doctor Bashir, I Presume", "The Emperor's New Cloak")
Love in potions
In 2269, Harry Mudd tried to sell love via means of love potion crystals. Although the effects of the potion were temporarily effective, once they wore off, the resulting emotions between the involved individuals turned to hate. (TAS: "Mudd's Passion")
The Megans used their magical Love philtre to attract lovers. (TAS: "The Magicks of Megas-Tu")
