Love

"One word frees us of all the weight and pain of life. The word is love.
Sophocles, Greek Poet 

How can our world be so abundant and blessed
with nature's vast displays of harmony,
so filled with pictures of beauty and love,
wrapped in the fingers of God's gracious love,
and be so filled with mortals void of love?
God grants us mortals freedom of choice.

We account for the choices that we make.
We account for the courses that we take.
Has our universe been set in motion
and forever programmed to have no choice?
Do non-mortal entities not debate?
God's love set all things in its proper place.

Should not His love heavily guide our love?
Such love guarantees to free us from pain.
