whom
what
do I want
to say today
but
that you are loved
by Earth
except when Earth should fail
and humankind
with
me
well
until we falter
too
that God remains
the faithful
if invisible
and
yes
that is a conundrum
for apologists
or
simply those who want
to believe
yet
there’s will
and we must exercise
our own
what
to believe
and without good evidence
what
to believe the most
love
faith in anyone
God
in God

Love Story
I should be writing about
Love, as
I was challenged years ago
By someone who no longer stays in touch
(no response, and that was that
a mystery)
To consider love in all I do
I fail, naturally enough
But the challenge is still good,
Still salient, still on
How may I love you today?
I’ll share a few words and offer a prayer
When you’re not looking
And if all this sounds way too platitudinous,
Well, remember the word
Silver has an origin in there
Something precious without money
Without recompense
Except its own
Is this family?
I don’t know, how is your family?
But, yes, I think so as the family goes beyond
Blood and legal bond
And even then
And we are the bond of Earth
With other obligations,
Though starting with a love of planet
Ain’t so bad
I love you
And the you is you
And all the yous
