Love

What conquers your anger in wrath?
What binds an enemy or foe?
What hold no additions, like math?

What cancels debts to level peace?
And sings a quiet river flow?
What understands before it meets?

Who can love like love better than?
A touch your heart can’t help but show?
What can guide like direction plans?

To look and search for something more?
When you past dark can you still glow?
What can harvest for you in store? 

Can my words touch your spirit too?
Belief in the Spirit I know.
Can our love be spirited food?
