don’t let love lose
because of tripping and stumbling
don’t let light die
though it may flicker
as petals shatter
and thorns bring blood,
don’t let the rose die from drought
let it bud again with fragrant bloom
let healing happen
I choose you again
let love win

Thank you for your comments, Marva. Wendell Berry says it in his prayer: “I know that I have life only insofar as I have love. I have no love except it come from Thee. Help, me, please, to carry this candle against the wind.”

I love these life affirming lines. We must let love win at all times. What if we all reached out in love to others in our communities, across the country, across countries, really accepting our common humanity?
