Linda Sue Grimes’ “Love’s Dwelling”

Read by Linda Sue Grimes

LOVE'S DWELLING

Love is wafting from the scented bloom.
Petal silence waves and sings in angels.
The soul arrests the day and lives
To curry life to all created in Divine.

Divine Mother broods in love growing
Her little ones in tender mother's milk.
The intoxicated poet brings strains
To surrender in solace to beauty.

Rose petal members gaze to heaven
Their true Cosmic home: They know
What love is in the arms of the Divine
Rising above all sorrow and calumny.

Love is ever evolving to perfect
All the straying souls who have forgotten
Robbed of memory of their time in Eden.
Light tinged thought begins the journey.

To the new bright heaven from Earth
Stained skin, the soul forsakes error
To stand unmoved and clean at last
Before the eyes of the Divine Belovèd.
