THE TIME IS RIPE FOR LEARNING LOVE

The hemlock cup is ready,
the boiling oil is drawn;
but the light of Christ breaks
upon thought in prayer
and wakens it to behold reality—
no poison there
nor threat anywhere.

As gently,
as irresistibly
as darkness gives way
to dawn
comes the crowning
realization:

there is only Love
everywhere!
