An older poem that resonates
Love!
Love as if this moment were the only one you had
To express the feelings in your heart
And live the truth of who you really are
For this moment is really all we have
And with each new moment
Comes a new opportunity
Or a chance to change
Take in every thing of beauty that you see
And look upon it with eyes of love
And so will love expand its presence in your heart
Look for the love in others
Even hidden behind their darker side and fears.
Embrace the common humanity that you share.
For no one on this earth is truly a stranger
When we look upon them with eyes of love
And love grows in our heart
As we bear witness
To the seeds of love
Hidden in each other
And water them with acceptance
And affection
