Meaning Has No Meaning Without Love
Meaning has no
meaning without love,
Elevating sentience to
desire.
Reason has no reason to
approve
Revelation unsustained by fire.
Yearn,
then, with the recklessness of burning,
Coming hungry to the
Christmas table,
Holding tight the objects of your
yearning,
Ready to find kings within the
stable.
In you there is a love that brings to
being
Such beauty as you cannot hope to
see,
Too simple and too glorious for
seeing,
Making it a sacrament to be.
As love
gives wings their will and words their song,
So may it give
you faith your whole life long.
