Amen

Love is endless, colorless and blind
...butt where can I find toilet paper
   to wipe my behind!?

Love is everywhere
  onejust has to see
 for the heart is my inner teacher
   my inner tree

I reach for a branch
 extend it thus so
  and the roots within me tell me to grow

Reach out and be the branch
 not the roots down below

Thanks for sharing this... exposing your thoughts through your unique poetic style. Meanwhile, I greet you with the love of the Lord, expressed by John 3:16 of the Bible, "For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life." Be blessed.

Hello Christine Appe, I rather be a branch than a root. I want to stretch outward. Have a nice day my fiend.
