The Way You Make Love


The way you make love

is the way God will be with you.

*This is Rumi’s variation on the golden rule.

 

Love marks calendar

three hundred sixty-five days

to stay in top shape.

 

Love is artistic

enjoys painting sunrises

nurturing heartstrings.

God’s enduring love

pushes back  devastation

for another day.

 

Love knows how time flies

then slows down to let you catch
up, and enjoy it.
