Tudor House of Love

He stood there in the front of the room bathed in light
and suddenly he turned into a halo right before my eyes 
All that was once invisible to me was now a Holy matter 
and all the things I oft kept shut were opened wide ajar 
He was kindness personified and as he framed me still,
I heard the swoosh of his gown as he came forward to 
wrap his arms around me tight, then he whispered, 
"I Love You So" nodding deeply, it was all understood. 
  
Though I was unfit to untie His dusty leather sandal 
I was the one who had to wipe the tears away from 
His moonstruck cheek, 
He turned me into a Mystic that day, then 
as all labels of meekness shed from my soul, 
I became strong as I entered His Tudor house, of LOVE...
