Ernest Robles Poet Free verse

And If Not For

and if not for
the melancholy pebbles lining our narrow
path
and if not for
the bruised-throated mourning birds’
sorrow
how else if not through faith
how else if not through love
that all shadows can stand
that all light within be strength
and if not for
God
an impossibility
and if not for
Love
an impossibility!
