The Greatest Emotion
The greatest emotion shared
is that of Love, immeasurable
The child would say, “a whole bunch!”
The spouse would say, “till the end of time!”
God would say, “no matter what….”
(I come to you
with hands open, extended
palms upward
that we may freely
take and receive
of one another
bearing gifts
for the heart is
both lover and teacher
we awaken a new dawn
while moon and stars
are yet a horizon reflection
let not light obliterate entirely
fond mystery between us,
Freedom something only
evil need fear
I come to you
having always taken
the first steps,
those of grace
and wonder eternal)
