Testament

Love is the business and basis of being;
Love is the leaven, the loaf, and the meal,
The nourishment, flavor, the taste and the feel,
The knowing, the dreaming, the hearing and seeing.
Love is the measure, the cup running over,
The mountain, the valley, the river, the plain;
Love is the sinew, the nerve, heart, and brain,
The earth and the heavens, the bee in the clover.
Love is the everything, spirit and blessing,
The ultimate focus of life and breath
And man's one godlike victory over death.
Love wings us to God and ends all our guessing.
