Love His Absolute Best

I thought to bring you
a bouquet of stars,
for everyone brings
roses; I thought of a 
ruby, big as mars – but
who could wear such
a thing?! I thought what
value such a tiny heart
though it beats only for
you, someone who has
become my world? Then
I thought behind this tiny
heart, driving my every breath, 
is the God of a universe, 
who thought of Creation, 
Love His Absolute Best!

God alone can hold Mars as a bouquet.

Thank you, Victor, and interesting statement. Are we not created in His Image? Aside from what they want~ what do you want for your children, what you have, more than you have...or less? Is it so wrong to dream of greatness, what we can't seem to have? I dream of a united world, free from sin and lust. I live my life as though this were possible regardless of apparent circumstance. All better, as with worst, start with men and women who refuse to stop dreaming. Just asking the questions. As you have the right to your answers. I know nothing. Blessings my friend.

A breath taking beauty, simple in form, but containing feelings that breaks the very seams of the tiny structure. Love it Joe.
