Love is…
forever with God
It cannot be shaded
or infused with darkness
Love is the sun
It shines for the seeing
It shines for the blind
Love knows the trees,
the animals and the breeze
Love comforts the dead
It veers not
down uncertain paths
Love is sure
Discover it
Embrace it
Hold on tight
So much is mistaken
for love
“Love is patient; love is kind”
It’s quiet enough to hear
what needs to be said
and loud enough to drown out
what doesn’t
Love is the first note of your favorite song
When you’re scared, lonely or sad
love is your Grand Canyon
of divine spirit
May you see the eagle flying
May he tip his wing to you
Love gives birth to blessings
kindness, forgiveness
and life
God is love
and so are you
Who among us
can write of death
close death
the remorse
for loss of time
without a flood
of lovers’ tears
We must keep
the mourning
We must claw
at the rations
of grief
against the morbidity
of the clock
There will soon
be fewer hours
from sunrise
to sunset
We must keep
the morning
for there’s humanity
in the tea,
the baked bread,
and the thinly spread jam
