Born free to keep love free



The freedom of our souls is our salvation;
that we were born spiritually free
makes us immune against all trespassing
on our love by strangers, fools and mortal idiots
who don't understand that love is something higher
than just sleazy sex and messing up and putting down,
the vulgar idiocy of clumsy ignorants,
no better than unthinking animals,
unhuman cynicals and base primitivists;
while thoughtful and considerate responsibility,
far-sighted care and freedom from all bonds to tie you down
is what love really is about,
the nourishment of its eternal life,
the food for thoughts of tenderness that always lasts
and the consistent kindness without end
that rather banishes itself in self-effacement
than dares take the risk of hurting any human feeling.

This is talking of love the kind that comes fom above. Pure love.
That gives and doesn't take, but receives joyfully.

A good piece of writing . A refreshing love poem.

I really enjoyed this look at love christian but I take issue with the final lines, because love doesn't even consider risks or dares, it just is love imo and love can only give good sustenance.


Smiling at you, fully fed
