There Is a Special Love

There is a special
love – the love one 
dreams of  having... 

a desire for
limitless expression of love – 

a love that embraces
your all…

but the thrifty heart
can never be happy
in love

mush less, the miser –
addicted to sums: meticulously
keeping records – foolishly tallying 
that which, according to divine length
and width, ethereal standards of weights
is ordained immeasurable….

No – love, though often a puzzle
as to origin, can never be appropriately
defined
by its pieces

nor understood by fragments 
no matter how captivating – as those of a 
fine tapestry, or swirling mosaics…

for if there are borders, 
so restricted is the timeless
nature of love…

Though love begins
with embers of cooling stars...

the Resurrection, a result of its 
comforting warmth, 

leads to the soaring rebirth of a new
and even brighter generation....

Thank you, Si; I appreciate the support. Love is all positive. It covers all that we know of good in the world. No negatives. God loved this world into creation.
