“More Love…” ~a poem by Linda Willows

Photograph by Sergio Occhiuzzo

Turn the whole of me to Thou
I twist, I ache, I burn, I bow…
In the narrow veins come low
still dwells such prayer, the ones that know…
that in those parts that dwell all of,
even there need be more Love.
Turn my face, my arch, my All.
Put whole of me within Thy thrall.

    • we love and in our living find the purification of Love calls for more than one may have ever understood or fathomed…what could flow in an earthly vein, is multiplied by a thousand and we are asked to love more, to learn more and turn to angles that we may never have even have fathomed to exist…but this is asked of the mortal, the soul, the ones that ask to Know Love as Sacred and grasp this Heart within as One’s Own….

  6. Beyond the all, another all, and all we give (we are). To bend, to break, to breathe, to bear……..to love, to love, to LOVE! I love this, Linda…..for I know the power within us to become one with the universe (as we are). Truly, always there is more to give (more to love). ~ Much love to you always, Bobbie
