Platonic Spirituality

Platonic Spirituality by Lori Maria Walton Waves splash upon my mind Desires flee away with molecular miles Creating a peace of platonic vastness For only One can satisfy That is you, above earthly matters, The One worthy of an early morning kiss The One whose love never ends Who never tires of hearing me call How shall I begin my day Without crying to you for help Without asking for your mercy And waiting for your loving arms to surround Where shall I go on this earth Without seeing your might and wonder Without feeling your compelling love Requesting that I join your family Others may disappoint But your love is never ending New each morning And always anticipating my response Gift upon gifts enter my eyes Leaving me with nothing to want You bring me the flower The dove and the child To comfort my eyes, soothe my parched tongue And keep my ears at peace Among the chaos of the social realm Where will I find such a love?
