~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Love, with all her iridescent shadows,
bruised by trembling winds of melancholy,
grieving the moments before vows were taken,
startling away the fears, the tears, the years
restoring the light, the laughter, the lasting
gladness, joy beyond what words can hold,
pleasures so graceful they almost breath
exultations in dreams, cascading in prayers,
faith so alive it penetrates the nights…
burning through the darkness, softening
each need with the glistening stardust sun,
diamond like peaks, growing summer’s grace,
near the grave of deceit where it will last,
stirring the fires of sensitivity, beautiful praises,
alive as the sun, the rain, the winds in all its traces
of amazing peace, silencing even the doubts
who come from listening to the night,
its tales of woe, its stories about everlasting
loneliness, abiding in the hearts of those,
the ones who don’t know love’s intimate peace…
hesitating in dreams, collapsing in the spirit,
where it balances yesterday’s laughter,
with the music of intimacy, passion, promises,
who will never fade, declaring love’s dilemma,
its need, its believing, its remembrance,
always playing in the silhouettes of a moonlike
blessing, erasing the night with swift silence,
chasing away the gloom with the news
of everlasting beautiful, intimacy, truth of love…
love, with all her moments, her wars, her losses,
and her endless truth…
she is like the wind’s fading wisdom,
retelling the seasons, the pleasures, the reasons,
love, it is the hope that bleeds into the senses,
the wonder of a kindness more breathtaking
than any vision, any dream, any wisdom…
love, with all her misery and pain,
remembers that – to give herself,
her blessings, her tears…
is to listen to the words of His grace,
dewy like, glistening,
sending light to the heart,
sending faith to the soul,
sending hope to the spirit…
who feels her gasping, soothing,
bringing the soundless flood of feeling,
into the lives of those who know…
love, she is the glow of God’s wisdom,
pouring out her hope, her joy, her peace,
flowing with the knowing…
that love, she is the reason I believe…
with her, I can do anything, be anything,
silence the darkness, with a melody,
believing, agreeing… love is the wisdom,
that will always listen to the hope,
breathing sensitivity and compassion,
revealing all the wonder that comes from knowing,
she is the reflection of the heart’s beat,
rhythm of light, softly playing in the wish,
pouring out the moments, quiet and still,
moments when her grace shudders
in the message of God’s will, the love
that is more healing than any pill,
the love, that is the answer to every fear,
the love, that can and will…
listen to the One who arouses love that seeks,
to pour out the wonderful into the world,
through the love that comes from the Son,
who has always been, the One…
whose love is the reason my heart continues on… !
