The Word Is Love, Is Life

The word is love, is life.
Life moves through the word.
Every writer of consequence knows this,
Deeply in every story he knows this.
Whatever we’ve come to do in this life
Speaks to us with the velvet tongues of
Spirit moving through us.
Listen in the silence of your heart—
The room of preparation for your destiny.
Everyone hears the same voice.
Are you listening?
