A Wonderful Stigmata

To say one has loved
but lost...is to say one
has never loved; for
love is a wonderful
stigmata – an indelible
pressed upon the heart
of eternity, out-shinning
all lesser lights, even
those of heaven’s brilliant
while implosive stars – 
love not only standing the
tests of time, but those
lesions of dimensions
separating hearts from
their immortal soul-bodies
boastful science stumble
over while poets 
loyally reveal – 

One does not simply love
but, in fact, becomes love –
the Pure Substance and Will
of God seamlessly woven
throughout His Creation, 
a stitch never dropped
nor hole ever manifest 
needing mending….

As for me, if 'love' comes with 'stigmata,' I'll stick to 'like a lot!' lol. ~ Gershon
