A Monday revisitation
To see as love sees
wholly and completely
to be as love is
disavowing all
enmity or division
that would detract
from our humanity
truth and beauty
fired in the soul
all from a single flame
the smile the kiss
the caress the same
all fed on the fruits
of photosynthesis
That no love
is ever lost
is a cosmic law
of which the literal
sunlight in her eyes
is living proof
To the meadow
where often I am permitted
to return and find it
transformed into
a lush carpet of dandelion
and delicate daisy
overlaying the deep green
such vibrant colour owing all
to the ardent light
that lights our lives
