Soul Love

SOUL LOVE

There is no love like soul love,
no rain like a soothing spring shower

after a long dry spell. No one knows
for certain when the rains will come

only hopeful that it will replenish
the garden and not wash it away

in flood waters, the savage brutality
of Nature. When you see the clouds

approach don’t run for shelter but
dance in the dust and embrace the joy

of every drop secure in the knowledge
that new life will spring forth from the

barren Earth and nothing will be the same
as it was before being touched

by the Divine.
