The Gift of Love

Beautiful Love Poem

---

Love follows me around

until I turn towards it

and see my own face

shining inside this Heart.

Love walks away

and leaves me alone,

but only when I close my eyes to it

and wonder where it is.

For Love is always beaming it's glow

no matter if I come or go,

it is always loving me,

living me,

being what it is, through me

in perfect glory and attention.

There is nothing else I could do

but dance with it,

praising "thank you"

and feel it's beautiful warmth.

There is really no place to go

no thing to comprehend

when the feeling heart is full

and when I am a fool for it.

I go mad with love,

crazy for it's current.

It pulses inside these veins

and moves the body triumphant.

I must shout it out from rooftops,

quickly grab the one beside me.

See, see! Can't you feel it too?

My eyes alive with fire,

my heart melting in its heat,

this jubilee is You as Me

and Us as It.

Can't you See?

This is It,

This is All there Is!
