Be of love

“Be of love(a little)

More careful

Than everything”

― E.E. Cummings

--------------------------------------------

be careful

there is a heart out there

exposed so that we can see it beating

be careful

there is a soul

oh so fragile

seeking to be loved

and valued

looking at us through those

sad eyes

people come and go

and go and come

and what we have to give

all we really have to give

to those so easily wounded

is that thing

called

love

we can lavish time

and money

carelessly

but love we must lavish

carefully

for it is the precious balm

that is beyond value

the mystical unguent

that can crush

or restore

it is The Sacred

it is

life
