Once Upon a Time Love

Appearing out of the cracked pavement of my life’s path Love came with healing and so much beauty Causing the ash heap of past broken promises and shattered dreams to take flight and be scattered like chaff in the wind- Liberating me from the chains of loneliness, hopelessness, disappointment, shame and blame Making me anew With a fresh outlook on life on my toward Life Where Love truly abides in genuine expressions of intimacy for better days and future happiness- More joy and strength A life more blessed by a once upon a time love- A love at its best! A love unfathomable! —more than words can express! —higher than the highest mountain! —deeper than the oceans depth! —longer than the eons of time, and —more genuine than the most perfect of diamonds! This once upon a time Love is on time! It is God-breathed, lasting and forever blessed! Martha Malloy
