Let them turn the mills inside
and fill
sacks
that feed even
heaven.

The Hope of Loving
What keeps us alive, what allows us to endure?
I think it is the hope of loving,
or being loved.
I heard a fable once about the sun going on a journey
to find its source, and how the moon wept
without her lover's warm gaze.
We weep when the light does not reach our hearts. We wither
like fields if someone close
does not rain their
kindness
upon
us.

If You Love
You might quiet the whole world for a second
if you pray.
And if you love, if you
really love,
our guns will
wilt.
- St. John of the Cross -

Ash Wednesday
Love is
the perfect stillness
and the greatest excitement, and most profound act,
and the world is almost as complete
as His name.
