Love's Extreme Unction

Love’s Extreme Unction by Michael R. Burch Lines composed during Jeremy’s first high school football game (he played tuba), while I watched his mother watch him. Within the intimate chapels of her eyes— devotions, meditations, reverence. I find in them Love’s very residence and hearing the ardent rapture of her sighs I prophesy beatitudes to come, when Love like hers commands us, “All be One!” Keywords/Tags: motherhood, mother, son, Mother's Day, mom, love, family, relationship, extreme unction, devotions, meditation, reverence, love’s residence, beatitude, beatitudes, heaven, unity, solidarity, togetherness, oneness, one
