A Cup Filled To the Brim

My heart's full
                    It overflows
                      with love.
                   It's a cauldron
                  boiling over with
                      tenderness.
                         A cup
                     that is filled
                     with peace
                   and kindness.
                      It's a cup
                 I pass around to
            everyone to drink from
                         So...
          here's to peace and love!


                           (Yalto)

Richard Lamoureux Date: 9/18/2019 10:03:00 AM You should submit this one to Regina’s Psalm contest. I think it would be perfect.
