Two, One and Only in Love
Okay!
Alright now! … Quit that!
I think I
finally
get it.
If you’re not tickling me
under my armpits,
you’re hanging from
the rafters smiling down
at sad me.
You’re crazy,
out of your mind!
“Yes! and just for
you
Brian!”
Well, I guess
with all this laughter
and out of bounds silliness,
you’ve at last convinced me not to take
this all so
seriously.
Okay, give me just a moment to think~
What to reply to such Love? …
I’ll show you how much I love you by
standing on that end table over there
singing to you like I’m crazy too.
“Brian,
you never knew Love
could be so much fun,
did you?”
Nope, sure didn’t!
“It Can Be
when it’s me
and you, together,
two, one and only
in Love!”
Let a little more
of that honey drip from your lips.
What do you call that taste that
sets me free, anyway?
"Grace."
*Brian K. Wilcox, April 12, 2007
Spiritual Exercise
Read the poem over slowly. What does it say to you? About you? What does it summon from you in feeling? In thought?
How would you describe grace in "nonreligious" terms? What is the relationship among grace, love, and freedom?
Why not venture out and write a poem expressing your grace-full relationship with God? Or someone else ~ a friend, lover, wife or husband, ...? After all ~ All True Love is Spiritual!
