Why Love
If only we
Would let love be
Bear with the pain
That cleanses plain
Bear with the ills
With patience still
Bear with the harsh
Of weary marsh
Bear with the hurt
That taunts with dirt
Bear with the change
That mellows range
Bear with the poke
Of fear that strokes
Bear with the bad
As love makes glad
Bear with the vain
That seems to gain
Bear with bad things
In vile mad flings
Bear with it all
To live love's call
Thus love can be
Our healing sea
